Holding companies make up an important place in the Luxembourg economy. They often use complex financial instruments and are involved in operations for which the accounting treatment often requires a deep analysis. The diversity of options foreseen by the accounting law allows for flexibility for companies, but also raises numerous questions.
Mastering these options and the accounting law is a major challenge for accounting professionals, especially considering the various legislative changes recently brought into force which add a further layer of complexity to the rules previously laid out.
