Establishing a Foundation in Switzerland – Structured and Sustainable Value Preservation
The foundation is one of the most solid and sustainable legal forms for achieving a broader purpose. Whether charitable, family-oriented, or corporate-related – a foundation creates lasting value, independent of heirs or shareholders. RB Swiss Group GmbH offers comprehensive support in establishing your foundation in Switzerland – legally secure, tax-optimized, and discreet.
What is a Foundation?
A foundation is an independent legal entity whose assets are dedicated to a clearly defined purpose – permanently and without an ownership structure. It is established through a publicly notarized deed, requires no shareholders, and is registered in the commercial register. Foundations can be private, charitable, or company-related.
Advantages of a Foundation in Switzerland

Tax benefits: Charitable foundations are generally exempt from federal and cantonal taxes
Independence: No shareholders, no inheritance – the foundation operates autonomously
Reputation & credibility: Especially suited for philanthropic or societal initiatives
Flexible structure: Broad freedom in defining the purpose, governance, and asset management
Legal certainty: The purpose is protected – changes are only permitted under strict conditions
