AG (Aktiengesellschaft)or SA ( Société Anonyme) Formation in Switzerland
Establish a prestigious Swiss corporation (AG) for maximum credibility, shareholder anonymity, and ease of transferring shares. Ideal for established businesses and serious investment structures.
Why Choose an AG for Your Swiss Business?
Opting for an AG formation provides distinct advantages that are critical for certain business models and strategic objectives.
Shareholder Anonymity
Unlike a GmbH, the shareholders of an AG are not publicly listed in the Commercial Register, offering a high degree of privacy and confidentiality.
Enhanced Credibility
The AG structure and its higher capital requirement signal stability and prestige to financial institutions and international partners.
Ease of Transferring Shares
Shares can be transferred easily and privately (for non-listed shares), simplifying changes in ownership or bringing in new investors.
Attracting Investment
The formal corporate structure is well-understood and preferred by venture capitalists and private equity investors worldwide.
