Looking for a Reliable Accountancy Firm? Why ESCEC International Is the Smarter Alternative
/in Blog /by escecWhen seeking a professional partner for accounting, financial consulting, or HR services in France, names like Primexis often surface. Known for their expertise and presence in Paris La Défense, Primexis has served large corporate clients and subsidiaries of international groups for over four decades. But while such firms offer experience and scale, they may not always be suited for entrepreneurs, small to mid-sized businesses, or international professionals navigating French regulations for the first time.
This is where ESCEC International comes in — a trusted, responsive, and expert-level firm dedicated to guiding individuals and businesses through France’s complex tax and legal landscape.
Understanding What You Really Need in a French Accounting Partner
Large firms like Primexis bring technical knowledge and the ability to manage multi-entity consolidations, finance transformation projects, and group-level reporting. However, their services are often designed for listed companies, financial institutions, or corporate groups already operating within complex structures.
At ESCEC International, we’ve built our reputation on delivering practical, agile, and high-quality services to a more diverse and international clientele:
Foreign entrepreneurs moving or investing in France
Small and medium-sized business owners
Expats needing guidance on French personal tax filings
Independent professionals and consultants
Our clients appreciate our personalized approach, multilingual communication, and commitment to clear, actionable support. We take time to understand your goals and adapt our strategies to fit your profile, not the other way around.
Comprehensive Services Tailored for Entrepreneurs and Expats
Unlike traditional firms, we don’t offer generic packages. Instead, we provide strategic assistance in:
French tax declarations and planning
Company formation and legal structuring
Social security and URSSAF contributions
VAT registration and compliance
Cross-border income and tax treaty analysis
Payroll and HR services for growing teams
Whether you’re launching a SASU, declaring foreign income, or handling your first business audit in France, our team guides you with clarity, confidentiality, and efficiency.
Why ESCEC International Stands Out
While Primexis is recognized in France for its technical consulting and consolidated reporting services, our strength lies in our accessibility and specialization in international setups. We focus less on scale and more on substance — and that makes all the difference when navigating administrative or fiscal transitions.
Independent and client-focused: We are not part of a large corporate structure, which allows us to make decisions quickly and align fully with your interests.
Multilingual and multicultural: We serve clients in English, French, and Arabic, which makes working with us especially easy for global clients.
Expertise that evolves with your business: Whether you’re just getting started or expanding internationally, we adapt as your needs change.
Straightforward pricing and communication: No complex service tiers or hidden fees — we believe in transparency at every stage.
Serving Clients Who Seek More Than Just a Name
It’s easy to be impressed by size, but what matters most is whether your accountant or advisor is invested in your success. If you’re looking for a partner to help you register, structure, or scale your business in France — or simply ensure tax compliance without headaches — ESCEC International is here for you.
We don’t aim to be like Primexis. We aim to be the best possible partner for professionals like you.
