Establishing a Holding Company in Switzerland – Tax-Efficient & Strategically Structured
Switzerland is among the top global locations for holding companies. Whether for entrepreneurs, investors, or corporate groups – a Swiss holding provides a tax-optimized and structured basis for managing participations. RB Swiss Group GmbH supports you throughout – from planning to implementation, legally compliant and future-oriented.
What is a Holding Company?
A holding company is an enterprise whose primary purpose is holding stakes in other companies. In Switzerland, holding status is tax-privileged, especially for a holding AG. Requirement: At least two-thirds of business activity must be participation-related. A holding can be established as an AG or GmbH – with tax benefits on federal and some cantonal levels, subject to conditions. We provide individual advice.
Advantages of a Holding in Switzerland
  • Tax privileges: Reduced or no federal profit tax with holding status
  • Asset protection: Separation of operations and ownership structure
  • Optimized capital flows: Cash flow management between subsidiaries
  • Central control: Strategic management of multiple companies under one roof
  • International structuring: Ideal for domestic and foreign investments
  • Strong reputation: Switzerland as a secure, neutral, and stable location
