Euro Economics

What Euro Economics does

EuroEconomics Group Holding S.L. is a Barcelona-headquartered professional services firm founded in 1996 by Jeroen Oskam, specializing in tax, accounting, payroll, and compliance services for foreign companies, investors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals operating in or relocating to Spain. The group operates through three integrated brands: EuroEconomics (core tax, accounting, payroll, and compliance since 1996), OTIS Lawyers & Legal Advice (legal services acquired in 2022, 30+ lawyers), and IFAR Insurance & Finance (insurance brokerage stake acquired in 2018, with IFAR Finance co-founded in 2024 under a Banco de España license to offer mortgages and project financing). Its technology stack combines modern real-time accounting software with internal generative-AI capabilities, including a contextual email-support agent branded "AI with a Face" and led by an AI Strategy and Adoption Lead, supported by ISO 9001 quality management certification.

The firm delivers services through 10 offices across Spain's principal expatriate regions (Barcelona, Madrid, Marbella, Mallorca, Alicante, Sevilla, Santander, Ibiza, Girona) and nine country-specific International Desks (Dutch, German, UK, Belgian, American, Canadian, Australian, Asian, Scandinavian), with deep specialization in cross-border tax regimes such as the Beckham Rule, pilot taxation, and athlete/artist advisory. Go-to-market is sales-led, relationship-based, and quote-priced per engagement, targeting enterprise foreign subsidiaries as well as HNW families (including Forbes 400-listed families) and special professional groups such as Olympic athletes and pilots. The group reports 1,100+ clients across six continents, 600+ company incorporations, and claims the highest NPS (9.1) and highest Great Place to Work score in Spain's accounting/tax sector.

The business model is fee-for-service professional services across tax, legal, insurance, and now regulated mortgage origination, with revenue derived from recurring compliance work (tax returns, bookkeeping, payroll), transactional mandates (incorporations, real-estate purchase guidance under the proprietary 5 Point Guarantee), and episodic advisory. The firm is privately held, founder-managed (Jeroen Oskam and Edwin van der Westen), and has grown organically and through targeted acquisitions and joint ventures (Ibersupport 2013, IFAR 2018, OTIS 2022, IFAR Finance 2024, DC Ibiza 2025) without external private equity or venture capital funding.
