Swiss safety is getting expensive. Very expensive.

UBS just reported around USD 3 billion in Q1 profit, while the Swiss regulatory debate points to roughly USD 20 billion of additional CET1 capital.

That contrast says a lot about where Swiss banking is heading.

For me, this is bigger than UBS.

It is about:
- the future cost of Swiss financial stability
- Zurich as a financial centre
- and why structure in Switzerland matters more than before

For international clients, entrepreneurs, investors and private clients building in Switzerland, this is highly relevant.

Because today, Switzerland is still one of the most attractive places for:
- wealth management
- Swiss company formation
- Swiss holding structures
- banking access in Switzerland
- relocation to Switzerland
- and cross-border structuring

But the standard is changing.

If you want to build, relocate, invest or structure properly in Switzerland, one thing matters more than ever:

getting the structure right from the start.

Why sophisticated clients are reassessing Zug-only thinking.

For years, Zug was the automatic answer when international entrepreneurs, investors and family offices discussed Swiss tax efficiency.

But the latest Swiss tax data shows a more nuanced reality.

At canton benchmark level, Lucerne now leads on corporate tax.
At municipality level, however, Wollerau stands shoulder to shoulder with the City of Zug on corporate tax — while also outperforming Zug, Lucerne and Zurich on key personal income tax comparisons.

That is exactly why the conversation has shifted.

Today, choosing the right Swiss location is no longer just about the lowest headline tax rate.

It is about combining:

• Swiss corporate tax efficiency
• Swiss personal income tax optimisation
• banking access in Switzerland
• international credibility
• operational substance
• and long-term structural resilience

For internationally active clients, this matters.

Because the best Swiss structure is not simply the cheapest one.
It is the one that still works under modern banking, transparency and international scrutiny standards.

This is why Wollerau, Canton Schwyz increasingly deserves to be part of any serious discussion around:

Swiss company formation
Swiss tax planning
relocation to Switzerland
Swiss holding

Switzerland is changing 🇨🇭

Strong banks.
Stricter rules.
Real enforcement.

This week alone:
UBS reports strong profits — while facing higher capital requirements.
Regulators continue tightening the system after Credit Suisse.
Transparency rules are expanding.

At the same time:
Capital is still flowing in.

The shift is clear:

✔ Structured → access
✖ Unstructured → friction

Same country.
Different rules.

If your Swiss setup hasn’t been reviewed recently,
you are likely operating on outdated assumptions.

When your Swiss bank suddenly closes your account — pause before you panic.

This is happening more often than many realise.
Banks in Switzerland — large and small — are increasingly terminating client relationships without detailed explanations.

For clients, this can feel abrupt and personal.
In reality, in most cases it is not.

Outside of sanctions or illegal activity, account closures are usually driven by internal bank decisions:
• changes in compliance or risk teams
• revised bank strategy
• new target client profiles
• jurisdiction or sector focus shifts

The client simply no longer fits the bank’s internal framework — even though nothing about the client has changed.

At Alpine Capital, we regularly support private clients and companies who need to open a new bank account in Switzerland after a sudden closure.

What matters most:
✔ calm, structured handling
✔ updated Swiss-compliant KYC documentation
✔ clear financial and corporate transparency
✔ selecting the right Swiss bank — not just any bank

Switzerland has many banks.
Each is different.
And for legitimate international clients, solutions almost always exist.

If your Swiss bank account was closed — or you have been given notice — this is a transition, not a dead end.
