BACC Expert Comptable Nice Menton Mandelieu Vallées

Six local offices across the Alpes-Maritimes, centred on Nice, make up BACC, a chartered accountancy group that calls itself a practice of human size rather than a large impersonal firm. It says its 30 staff share a commitment to listening, advising and accompanying clients, and the practice traces part of its group back to a firm called SONIREXCO, active since 1980.

Advice at each stage of a business

The practice says its aim is to guide company heads through the decisions they face: starting or taking over a business, hiring and managing staff, investing, looking for finance, reducing the tax burden, growing and eventually handing the business on. It positions itself as the main adviser to the traders and company owners it serves, whatever their sector, local economy or size, in an accounting, tax, social and legal environment that it describes as increasingly complex.

Accounting, tax, payroll and legal support

Services cover bookkeeping and annual accounts, tax returns and tax advice for the business and for its owner personally, and payroll and employment administration. The firm says it runs a dedicated social team supervised by an employment lawyer. Legal paperwork for companies forms part of the same mandate, and the site also gives guidance on creating a company and on filing income tax returns.

Online services

BACC describes itself as an early adopter of connected tools for businesses, naming web-based bookkeeping, payroll and online invoicing services. Clients can send accounting documents in digital form, and software is installed on their own computers using access codes supplied by the firm. It describes these cloud services as secure and quick to use.

Quality and service promises

The group says its quality approach is attested by an ISO 9001 certification dating from 2008, and the site advertises a reply to enquiries within 48 hours. It emphasises personal contact and a friendly, accessible relationship, saying each client should feel free to share concerns.
