Regulatory &
Compliance Advisory

Financial Services

Financial institutions in Switzerland operate under one of the world's most demanding supervisory frameworks.

• FINMA audit preparation — structured readiness assessments, team coaching, and documentation review ahead of regulatory inspections
• Prudential audit support — risk management, capital adequacy, liquidity, and internal controls aligned with supervisory expectations
• Gap analyses and remediation plans — structured assessment against applicable FINMA circulars, with prioritised, actionable roadmaps
• Ongoing compliance advisory — second-line support on a mandate basis: policy reviews, regulatory monitoring, compliance function reinforcement

Accounting &
Financial Operations

SMEs & Startups

A well-built finance function is the foundation every growing company needs — and too often lacks. We set up the right structures, run the day-to-day with rigour, and prepare you for the next stage of growth, whether that means an audit, an investor, or a new market. We step in at the level your company actually needs, without the overhead of a full-time hire.

• Accounting system setup — chart of accounts design, software selection and configuration, aligned with Swiss GAAP (OR) or IFRS readiness
• Bookkeeping and financial reporting — rigorous, timely recording and monthly, quarterly, and annual management reports
• Statutory financial statements — preparation in compliance with the Swiss Code of Obligations (Art. 957 et seq.), including all required notes and disclosures
• Cash flow management and budgeting — rolling forecasts, budget preparation, variance analysis, and financial decision support
• Interim CFO / Finance Manager — part-time or project-based senior finance leadership: strategy, banking, investor reporting, team coordination

For: Swiss SMEs · Industrial companies · Fintechs · Startups · Foreign companies entering Switzerland

Tax Advisory
& Compliance

Corporate & Private Clients

Swiss tax law is multi-layered — federal, cantonal, and communal — and the stakes of mismanaging it are real. We deliver pragmatic, technically sound tax advice that focuses on what matters: compliance, risk reduction, and legitimate optimisation where it genuinely exists. No unnecessary complexity. No false promises.

• Corporate tax advisory — direct tax advice on structuring, dividend policy, intercompany transactions, and optimisation within Swiss law and OECD standards
• VAT advisory and compliance — registration, periodic filings, input tax deduction reviews, and support during FTA audits
• Tax return preparation — complete preparation and filing for companies and individuals, including complex situations (self-employment, securities, real estate, foreign assets)
• Real estate taxation — acquisition structuring, ongoing taxation, property gain tax, and exit planning
• Tax risk reviews and audit support — exposure identification, documentation, and representation during tax authority inquiries

For: SMEs · Entrepreneurs · Executives · Private clients · Real estate investors · Crypto holders

Internal Audit &
Risk Management

Governance & Assurance

Internal audit done well is not a compliance formality — it is one of the most powerful tools a board and management can have. We deliver risk-based internal audit services that produce actionable insights, not lengthy reports that gather dust. Fully independent. Senior-level judgment throughout.

• Outsourced or co-sourced internal audit — full delivery or reinforcement of your internal audit function, calibrated to your size and regulatory obligations
• Risk assessment and audit planning — structured identification of key risks, translated into a prioritised, risk-based annual audit plan
• Audit execution — operational, financial, compliance, and IT audits conducted with rigour and focused on root causes, not just symptoms
• Internal control system evaluation (ICS/SCI) — assessment of design and operating effectiveness, with gap identification and improvement recommendations
• Reporting to management and audit committees — clear, decision-oriented reports with findings, risk ratings, and concrete next steps

For: Mid-size companies · FINMA-supervised entities · Holding structures · Companies preparing for external audit
