XXXX represents a rare opportunity to acquire a “vintage” Swiss para-banking institution with an uninterrupted operational history dating back to its incorporation on March 10, 1936, in Zug, Switzerland. As a longstanding participant in the Swiss financial landscape, the firm maintains a clean record with no liabilities, underscoring nearly a century of resilience and continuity.

Unique Hybrid Structure

The entity operates under a dual-nature framework that offers significant advantages for High Net Worth Individuals, Family Offices, and international investors. It combines the fiduciary oversight of a trust with the operational capacity of a standard business.

• Swiss Private Trust Company: Unlike common law trusts, this is a corporate entity that can act as both trustee and beneficiary to manage and protect assets for stakeholders.

• Stock Corporation (AG): Established as a Swiss stock corporation, it can engage in broad commercial activities under Swiss corporate law.

• Privacy & Discretion: Ownership privacy is reinforced through confidential registered shares and the absence of a public shareholder register in Switzerland.

Regulatory Status & Compliance

Despite its age, XXXX is fully compliant with modern supervisory standards and maintains active regulatory status.

• Licensing Authority: The company is affiliated with SO-FIT (Geneva), a Swiss Self-Regulatory Organization (SRO) recognized under the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA).

• Independent Oversight: Regulatory supervision is provided by FINMA-approved bodies, with current auditing performed by SGAC SA.

• Audit History: The firm holds a clean 2024 SO-FIT audit, confirming low-volume activity with zero risk and ongoing compliance.

• Financial Standing: A Letter of Good Standing has been issued by the Debt Register of the Canton of Zug.

Comprehensive Operational Authorizations

As a licensed financial intermediary, XXXX is authorized to conduct a wide range of services for its owners and clients.

Turnkey Operational Capabilities

The company is provided as a fully operational solution with established infrastructure.

• Banking: Includes a fully operational Revolut multicurrency business account and established banking relationships (subject to KYC), with the possibility to reactivate UBS accounts.

• Local Substance: Regulatory requirements for a Swiss Resident Director, a registered Head Office address in Zug, and a Compliance Officer are already met.

• Prepaid Administration: Fees for the first year of accounting, tax filing, and AML audits are prepaid.

Global Reach and Ownership

Switzerland offers a favorable environment for international investors to manage a trust company remotely.

• Foreign Ownership: There are no restrictions on the nationality of the ultimate beneficial owner.

• Remote Management: Foreign owners can operate the company from abroad through qualified fiduciaries.

• Residency Support: Ownership of this structure can support applications for Swiss residency.
