(SMEs).
Companies whose headcount or turnover falls below certain limits.
For example, the European Union takes SMEs as having fewer than 250 employees and either turnover not exceeding €50m or (annual) balance sheet not exceeding €43m. Even within the EU, Member States may use different levels for domestic purposes.
