- Banking
Swiss banking as a new resident in 2026: what actually opens, and how
Swiss banking has changed materially in the past decade. The 2026 reality for new residents and cross-border movers is sharper than the legacy reputation.
- Tax Strategy
Swiss lump-sum taxation in 2026: the realistic picture
The Swiss lump-sum (forfait fiscal) regime still exists - in some cantons, for some profiles, under conditions that have tightened over the years.
- Residency
Swiss residency in 2026: work permits, lump-sum taxation, and what actually goes through
Swiss residency is selective, not closed. The routes that work in 2026 reward genuine substance - in employment, in capital, or in cantonal fit.
