Regulatory, accounting
and tax advisory —
done properly.

Regulatory &
Compliance Advisory

Financial Services

Swiss regulatory requirements are demanding, and supervisory expectations keep moving. Whether you're preparing for a FINMA inspection, reviewing your AML/KYC setup, or dealing with findings from a prudential audit — we provide practical, hands-on support based on real experience with Swiss regulatory practice.

• AML/KYC framework reviews — design and operating effectiveness of controls, benchmarked against FINMA Circular 2011/1 and AMLA requirements
• FINMA audit preparation — structured readiness assessments, team coaching, and documentation review ahead of regulatory inspections
• Prudential audit support — risk management, capital adequacy, liquidity, and internal controls aligned with supervisory expectations
• Gap analyses and remediation plans — structured assessment against applicable FINMA circulars, with prioritised, actionable roadmaps
• Ongoing compliance advisory — second-line support on a mandate basis: policy reviews, regulatory monitoring, compliance function reinforcement

For: Banks · Asset managers · VASPs · Fund administrators · Insurance companies

Accounting &
Financial Operations

SMEs & Startups

Growing companies often don't have the internal resources to build a solid finance function from scratch — and they shouldn't have to hire a full-time CFO to get there. We step in where it makes sense: setting up the right foundations, running the day-to-day, and preparing you for whatever comes next.

• Accounting system setup — chart of accounts design, software selection and configuration, aligned with Swiss GAAP (OR) or IFRS readiness
• Bookkeeping and financial reporting — rigorous, timely recording and monthly, quarterly, and annual management reports
• Statutory financial statements — preparation in compliance with the Swiss Code of Obligations (Art. 957 et seq.), including all required notes and disclosures
• Cash flow management and budgeting — rolling forecasts, budget preparation, variance analysis, and financial decision support
• Interim CFO / Finance Manager — part-time or project-based senior finance leadership: strategy, banking, investor reporting, team coordination

For: Swiss SMEs · Industrial companies · Fintechs · Startups · Foreign companies entering Switzerland

Tax Advisory
& Compliance

Corporate & Private Clients

Swiss tax law is complex — federal, cantonal, and communal — and getting it wrong has real consequences. We give you clear, actionable advice focused on compliance and reducing risk. No unnecessary complexity, no aggressive structures that create more problems than they solve.

• Corporate tax advisory — direct tax advice on structuring, dividend policy, intercompany transactions, and optimisation within Swiss law and OECD standards
• VAT advisory and compliance — registration, periodic filings, input tax deduction reviews, and support during FTA audits
• Tax return preparation — complete preparation and filing for companies and individuals, including complex situations (self-employment, securities, real estate, foreign assets)
• Real estate taxation — acquisition structuring, ongoing taxation, property gain tax, and exit planning
• Tax risk reviews and audit support — exposure identification, documentation, and representation during tax authority inquiries

For: SMEs · Entrepreneurs · Executives · Private clients · Real estate investors · Crypto holders

Internal Audit &
Risk Management

Governance & Assurance

Internal audit is only useful if it produces something actionable. We deliver risk-based audits that give your board and management real insights — not a list of findings nobody acts on. We work as your outsourced or co-sourced internal audit function, with full independence and senior judgment throughout.

• Outsourced or co-sourced internal audit — full delivery or reinforcement of your internal audit function, calibrated to your size and regulatory obligations
• Risk assessment and audit planning — structured identification of key risks, translated into a prioritised, risk-based annual audit plan
• Audit execution — operational, financial, compliance, and IT audits conducted with rigour and focused on root causes, not just symptoms
• Internal control system evaluation (ICS/SCI) — assessment of design and operating effectiveness, with gap identification and improvement recommendations
• Reporting to management and audit committees — clear, decision-oriented reports with findings, risk ratings, and concrete next steps

For: Mid-size companies · FINMA-supervised entities · Holding structures · Companies preparing for external audit

Training &
Capacity Building

Finance, Audit & Compliance

Generic training programmes are a waste of time and budget. Every session we run is built around your team's actual level, your industry, and your specific situation. Practical, targeted, and applicable from day one — including hands-on use of AI and data tools where they genuinely add value.

• AML/KYC and regulatory compliance training — tailored to AMLA, FINMA circulars, and FATF standards, with practical case studies and red flag identification
• Finance fundamentals for non-finance professionals — financial statement literacy, key metrics, and budget reading for managers, founders, and board members

• Internal audit methodology — risk-based planning, working paper standards, interview techniques, and report writing for junior auditors and new internal audit functions
• Data analytics and automation in finance and audit — hands-on training in Excel, Power BI, and AI tools with direct applicability to professional practice

For: Banks · Asset managers · SMEs · Compliance officers · Junior auditors · Board members · Founders

Pre-FINMA
Stress Test

Fixed-Price Diagnostic

A FINMA inspection or prudential audit doesn't announce itself with much notice. Most startups and small asset managers find out what their weaknesses are during the inspection — not before it. This product changes that. We simulate what a regulatory inspector would look for if they walked through your organisation tomorrow, and give you a structured picture of where you stand before that conversation happens.

• Structured review of your governance, compliance framework, controls, and documentation — benchmarked against applicable FINMA requirements
• RAG report (Red / Amber / Green) — a clear, colour-coded assessment of your position across all key regulatory dimensions
• Prioritised action plan — ranked by urgency and regulatory exposure, with specific, actionable next steps
• Verbal debrief with leadership — walk-through of findings and recommendations, so your team understands what matters and why

For: Crypto startups · Fintechs · Small asset managers · VASPs · Companies preparing for first FINMA contact

Regulatory
Failure Autopsies

Monthly Subscription

Every FINMA enforcement action, licence refusal, or regulatory sanction is a case study — and most compliance professionals never get access to what actually happened inside those organisations. This subscription changes that. Each month, we publish 2–3 detailed analyses of real Swiss fintech and financial services cases: what went wrong, why it went wrong, and what a well-run organisation would have done differently. Think of it as a crash report for compliance officers.

• Monthly case analyses based on publicly available enforcement actions, FINMA communications, and court decisions
• Structured format: facts, root cause analysis, regulatory failures identified, and lessons applicable to your own organisation
• Short, practical, applicable — designed to be read in 10 minutes and actioned immediately
• Access to a private community of subscribers for discussion, questions, and shared intelligence

For: Compliance officers · CCOs · Founders · Legal counsel · Risk managers · Investors in regulated entities

Fractional CCO

Monthly Retainer

Most early-stage regulated companies don't need a full-time Chief Compliance Officer — but they do need one. The fractional model solves that. You get a senior CCO embedded in your organisation on a part-time basis: attending board meetings, signing off on compliance frameworks, dealing with regulators, and providing the kind of senior judgment that a consultant hired by the task can't deliver. The difference is accountability — as your CCO, we're part of your leadership team, not an external advisor.

• Ongoing compliance oversight — monitoring of regulatory developments, adaptation of your framework, and proactive identification of emerging risks
• Direct regulatory interface — primary point of contact for FINMA communications, auditors, and supervisory correspondence
• Board and management reporting — regular compliance reports, incident escalation, and horizon-scanning for leadership
• Team leadership — compliance function management, guidance for junior staff, and culture-building
• Fixed monthly retainer — no hourly billing, predictable cost, clearly defined scope reviewed quarterly

For: Fintechs · Crypto companies · Small asset managers · Startups entering regulated space · Companies with no in-house compliance function

Asset Manager
Community

Private Membership

Small Swiss asset managers face the same regulatory complexity as large institutions — without the in-house resources. The major consulting firms ignore this segment: mandates are too small, margins too thin. This community was built to fill that gap. It's a private, curated network of 50–100 asset managers with access to shared intelligence, real-time regulatory alerts generated by AI, and direct access to senior expertise. It's not a forum. It's a working infrastructure for compliance and regulatory management.

• Real-time regulatory alerts — AI-generated monitoring of FINMA circulars, SFAMA guidance, and legislative developments, with plain-language summaries
• Monthly expert sessions — live Q&A and case-based discussions on current regulatory topics, hosted by the community anchor expert
• Shared template library — model policies, compliance frameworks, board reporting templates, and gap analysis tools updated continuously
• Peer intelligence — access to the collective experience of other asset managers navigating similar challenges
• Direct advisory access — priority access to senior expertise for members' specific questions, included in the monthly membership

For: Independent asset managers · Boutique fund managers · Family offices · Portfolio managers setting up their own structure
