Where your wealth
is really decided.

Six areas, tailored to each person, whatever the size of their wealth. Always in the same order: what doing nothing costs, what we undertake, what you stand to gain.

1PENSIONS

Pensions and retirement

Without action, most people retire on 40 to 50% of their last income. With well-planned buy-ins, the right private pension and good choices, the 80% goal becomes reachable.

2VESTED BENEFITS

Vested benefits

A job left, a move away from Switzerland: pension assets are often scattered, sometimes forgotten. We find them, bring them together, then invest or withdraw them depending on your situation.

3TAX

Swiss and French tax

Tax is withheld at source from your salary. To deduct pension contributions, a pension buy-in or childcare costs, you must request an ordinary assessment before 31 March of the following year. The decision is final, so we assess it with you first. In France, your Swiss income is declared and offset by a tax credit; we prepare both returns.

6WRAPPERS

Optimising your wrappers

Pensions, life insurance, capitalisation contracts, securities accounts: in Switzerland as in France, the wrappers already exist. What makes the difference is how you use them: the structure, the fees, the allocation, the beneficiary clause, the timing of withdrawals. We review them one by one, adjust them, then track their performance over time.

Z · Withholding tax · Geneva

Would a TOU pay off for you?

Private pension contributions, pension buy-ins and childcare costs are ignored by withholding tax. To deduct them, you must request a subsequent ordinary assessment (TOU), with a full tax return.

A TOU cannot be withdrawn: a resident stays in it every year, spouse included, until the C permit. It also covers other income and assets, and may lead to extra tax. Indicative estimate, 2025 federal scales, city of Geneva.

Z · Vested benefits

Do you have a forgotten pension account?

Four questions. After a change of job, part of the 2nd pillar often stays in an account nobody follows any more.

Have you worked in Switzerland for more than one employer?
Have you left a job without knowing where your 2nd pillar went?
Have you had a break: unemployment, studies, leave, self-employment, a move away from Switzerland?
Are your vested benefits already consolidated in one place?
