Switzerland is known for its stable legal and financial environment, making it an attractive location for individuals and organizations looking to establish a
swiss company or a Verein (association). Both structures serve different purposes and offer unique benefits. Here’s what UK residents need to know when considering these options.
Swiss Foundation
A Swiss Foundation is an independent legal entity created to manage assets for a specific purpose, such as philanthropy, education, or cultural development. Unlike a company, it does not have owners or shareholders—its assets must be used exclusively for the intended purpose.
Key Features:
Asset Protection: Funds placed in the foundation are legally bound to its mission.
Regulated Structure: Most foundations are subject to government supervision to ensure compliance with their objectives.
