For the first time, in fact, they&#8217;re recognized as a\u00a0productive entity like small and medium businesses. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>The\u00a0Vice President of the European Parliament (and former EU commissioner), Antonio Tajani, has been firsthand committed for years in the full acknowledgement of European professionals as SME&#8217;s regardless of their company structure.<\/strong><\/span> \u00a0Legal equivalence\u00a0comes as a result of multiple stresses by the EU Commission by 2003\/361\/EC recommendation and the 1303\/2013 regulation, together with the continuous lobbying activity\u00a0from the professional organisations. \u00abThe European Union, which previously did not allow professionals to benefit from the incentives for companies, decided to make the necessary adjustments enhancing\u00a0their\u00a0turnover\u00bb, remarks Capra highlighting that \u00abonce overcome the Italian distinctions between professional firms and SMEs, Italian\u00a0professionals can now compete in a European dimension, even if this is only a step along the path\u00bb. In accordance to\u00a0European guidelines that reclassify\u00a0role and value of the professionals, the Italian institutions will undoubtedly need new tools to support professional firms just like they do to SMEs, as \u00a0the economic environment is complex and volatile. This openness is therefore a great opportunity for professionals who, too often, have been excluded from several incentives despite having the necessary requirements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wall &amp; Street<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>(translation from Italian by Gian Maria De Francesco)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><p>The 2016\u00a0Italian Budget Law introduced several innovations.
