Taxes and legal aspects

In Switzerland, your investments are subject to wealth tax and income tax is payable on earnings such as dividends and interest. Sales of securities are generally tax-free as long as you are classified as a private investor. This means that you do not have to pay capital gains tax, which is a great advantage. Please note that we cannot offer tax advice.
