Russell Bedford Italian Network Adds Specialist Audit Firm TREVOR S.r.l.

Online, February 5, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Russell Bedford International, the global group of independent professional services firms, has announced the further expansion of its Italian network with the addition of TREVOR S.r.l. This development comes just three months after a new tax and business consulting practice in Bologna joined the existing Milan and Rome tax and accounting firms in October 2013.

Established in 1986, TREVOR S.r.l. is a specialist independent external audit practice with four principals and around 30 personnel in total. Serving multinational and domestic clients in the energy, utilities, banking and finance, pharmaceuticals and retail sectors, it is one of only 20 audit firms in Italy that are registered with CONSOB, the Italian stock exchange commission. The principals are all CPAs and registered auditors, and they all spent parts of their careers in Big-4 or second tier audit firms.

The firm's headquarters are in Trento, in the north east of Italy. It also has offices in Milan and Rome.

Managing partner Paolo Foss commented: "Multinational groups with Italian and international subsidiaries form a vital - and increasing - proportion of our client base. We needed a genuinely global partner that we knew could match our own standards for independent financial audit services - and provide our clients with access to the same quality of service anywhere in the world."

Alan Bezzant, CEO of Russell Bedford International, added: "The appointment of TREVOR S.r.l. further confirms our Italian network as one of the fastest-growing multi-discipline groups in Italy, with this latest addition giving us a presence in yet another important region."
