“We had a good meeting, we received all the information we need to make our report from the financial department, which is very well organised. FIM Europe had a very good financial result this year”, stated Laurent Delbroek, President of the FIM Europe Auditors.
“The book-keeping gave a lot of information and made it easy to do our job as auditors”, added Tapio Nevala, member of the FIM Europe Auditors.
“I’m really satisfied with the balance-sheet of 2015”, said Alessandro Sambuco, FIM Europe Secretary General. “In these cases it’s good to consider that the success depends on the whole ‘team’, starting from the Governance of our organization, which demonstrated good management choices, up to the Administration, which with constance and dedication has pursued the goal of cost containment. I’m proud to be part of this team and I’m glad I can count on the professionalism of my Staff”.
“I am very happy with the results of the weekend”, stated FIM Europe President Dr Wolfgang Srb. “Sporting as well as Non-Sporting activities develop very well, European Federations, organisers and clubs are working very hard to achieve their goals.
“While continuing to organise sport events on top level, we increase our activities in the field of road safety and public policy and education. I am also satisfied with the excellent work of the administration, a well respected and competent service centre for the European Federations. They work most efficient and cost effective”, concluded Dr Wolfgang Srb.
