Tax-efficient wealth succession for the generations to come

A well-thought-out wealth succession protects what has been built and prevents taxes or unresolved legal issues from burdening the transfer. Whether a gift, an inheritance or an advance succession arrangement, we develop solutions that are sound in tax terms and fair across generations.

Holding companies, family holding companies, foundation models

Not every succession structure suits every estate. Holding companies, family holdings, foundations and other succession arrangements are carefully examined from a tax perspective. The planning also takes into account liquidity effects, valuation issues, deadlines and reporting obligations.

The tax structure only holds if business succession under civil law supports it.

Cross-border wealth succession

In the case of foreign assets, international family situations, residence issues and tax treaty aspects, we carefully align all relevant factors in order to reduce double taxation risks and ensure consistent planning.
