We advised a client from Poland on corporate law matters, focusing on how Swiss stock corporations can be leveraged to optimize relationships with investors and shareholders. This included advising on the legal structure, governance, and shareholder agreements to ensure a more efficient and transparent framework for managing investor relations. Our experience in similar mandates, particularly in
corporate restructuring and relocation support, helped structure an investor-friendly legal framework that remains compliant and scalable.
In addition to corporate structuring, we assisted the client in the relocation of key personnel to Switzerland, managing all necessary agreements with the migration authorities. Our firm ensured full compliance with local regulatory requirements, facilitating a smooth transition for the client’s leadership team.The process incorporated regulatory considerations outlined in the
FINMA 2022 report, with attention to corporate governance responsibilities and risk exposure. To support operational compliance and cross-border movement, we also considered upcoming fiscal changes, such as
VAT in Switzerland rising in 2024, which could impact executive compensation structures. Furthermore, the client's legal strategy accounted for
stricter measures against abusive bankruptcies, ensuring long-term viability and resilience of the chosen structure.
This mandate reflects broader market shifts, including the evolving role of financial instruments like the
Swiss franc becoming a cryptocurrency, which are increasingly influencing investor expectations and structuring considerations.
