Our Spring 2013 Edition – "The Magazine of Steffen & Partner"

It is spring 2013 – and in our firm's magazine, too, it is the "time to reinvent oneself". Topics include: an insight into the Rhiem Group. We also feature the special topic of inheritance and gifting, which is likewise addressed in our banking section together with Deutsche Bank Privat- und Geschäftskunden AG, Stadtsparkasse Bocholt (SPK) and Volksbank Bocholt eG (VB). Our Rechtsanwälte (German Attorneys-at-Law) cover the topics of company cars and home searches so that you can be well prepared. The topic of economic crime is important – our Wirtschaftsprüfer (German Statutory Auditors) explain why. Haus der Weine in Bocholt provides the right pairing for asparagus, Küchen Niehaus explains what a steam oven actually does, and for Garten Schwiening the garden is the new kitchen. In addition, we are top-rated Steuerberater (German Certified Tax Advisors), have published a number of specialist articles, and went on our company ski trip. Now we are back and wish you: ENJOY THE READ.

Our Spring 2013 Edition – "The Magazine of Steffen & Partner"
2 min readUpdated: 2016-01-28

Spring awakening! Darkness? Fatigue? Done and dusted! Now it's time to wake up – spring is here.

The Japanese cherry blossom adorns our cover image this season. It is a true herald of spring. The time of the cherry blossom marks the beginning of spring in the Japanese calendar. It stands for beauty, new beginnings and transience – rather lovely, isn't it?

The garden is the new kitchen. It is high time to visit a master gardener. Do you know a koi named Richard? Not yet? Then it really is time for a company visit to Garten Schwiening. Look forward to wonderful pictures and a great spring in the garden. Mr Schwiening will certainly have many more wonderful ideas for your garden as well.

Are you also always looking forward to the asparagus season? Then why not try asparagus prepared in a steam oven. What does a steam oven actually do? We asked someone who knows and received some surprising answers. Along the way, we also learned why wine glasses sometimes remain wet in the dishwasher and how we can prevent this from now on. We visited Niehaus Küchen GmbH and saw many beautiful kitchens on display – one could almost… but see for yourself. Jörg and Anne Niehaus look forward to your visit and will surely give you many new tips about your kitchen and the proper use of the relevant appliances.

We ourselves can once again take pleasure in another distinction as a TOP Steuerberater. Steffen & Partner has once more been recognised by Focus magazine as one of the leading firms in Germany, and we are very pleased about this.

We also greatly enjoyed our joint ski trip and look back on it in this edition with fondness and emotion, sharing a few impressions with you through some great pictures.

Inheritance and gifting, the Berlin will, the advance healthcare directive, subsidies and grants, structuring options with regard to investments, company cars and much more – all this awaits you this spring in the legal and tax sections. Stay tuned and, as always, enjoy reading!
