Individual management
For employees with a salary over CHF 132,300 a 1E pension plan may be provided, so that each member can determine their management profile. Piguet Galland offers five different profiles including up to 70% in shares.
The 2nd Pillar for businesses
We create pension funds tailored to meet the precise requirements of self-employed people and business owners, taking advantage of the corresponding benefits, specifically tax benefits.
