Investments in crypto assets

-

Workshop

The speakers on the workshop: "The different forms of transactions with crypto assets raise various questions in the area of income and wealth taxes. Using practical examples, we will show the different tax consequences during the life cycle of crypto assets. We also look at financing instruments such as SAFE (simple agreement for future equity) and SAFT (simple agreement for future token)."

Private asset management versus commercial trading

-

Workshop

The speakers on the workshop: "In addition to the classics on real estate and art trading, we will present cases on the distinction between private and business assets and on the question of the time of realization."

Investments in real estate (national/international)

-

Workshop

The speakers on the workshop: "Private investment in real estate offers a wide range of application issues in the national and international tax context. For example, what is the situation regarding the transfer of dismantling costs and the deduction carryforward in an international context, how strictly does the congruence principle apply to real estate gains tax or how should project costs be treated in connection with the sale of building land? The speakers will examine these and other questions, taking into account the perspectives of the administration on the one hand and the consultancy on the other."

Asset structuring by means of trusts and foundations

-

Workshop

The speakers at the workshop: "Trusts and foundations - still relevant or increasingly relevant? We will discuss new developments in legislation, case law, doctrine and administrative activity with the participants."

Specialties in wealth tax (valuation, bouclier fiscal, etc.)

-

Workshop

The speakers on the workshop: "The valuation of assets (e.g. non-listed participations), the distinction between taxable and tax-free assets and the wealth tax brake are some of the topics that we will discuss with the participants. Based on cases and current court rulings, we will draw lessons for the work of advisors and authorities together with the participants."

Introduction of a capital gains tax

-

Unit

Fabian Baumer on his presentation: "The tax exemption of private capital gains is probably the most significant loophole in income tax. Various circumstances, such as indirect partial liquidation or transposition, then restrict the tax exemption and complicate tax law. So would it make sense to tax private capital gains? I look forward to discussing this controversial tax policy topic with the participants!"

Compact seminars

You want to build a solid foundation: Compact seminars

In the compact seminars, you will acquire the basic knowledge of Swiss and international tax law in individual topic-related modules. These basics are supplemented by the latest developments in tax law.

The compact seminars are usually one-day events at a central location, but they can also be attended as an online event via streaming.

For preparation and for reference after the seminar, you will receive documents with case studies and detailed solution instructions. The seminar will focus on discussing the case studies.

Integration seminars

You want to think outside the box: Integration seminars

On the one hand, the integration seminars provide you with the basics from cross-tax knowledge areas, for example basic legal and business management knowledge. On the other hand, you can deal in depth with the tax issues arising in this context on the basis of practical case studies.

The integration seminars are usually one-day events with introductory speeches as well as presentations on the respective cross-tax topics. The tax-specific issues are dealt with by discussing case studies.

In-depth seminars

You want to get to the bottom of tax law: In-depth seminars

The in-depth seminars provide an intensive examination of complex tax issues. The in-depth seminars are mainly or exclusively designed as workshops. After a brief introduction to the topic, practical examples are presented with the aim of stimulating in-depth discussions.

In order to leave enough time for the exchange of ideas
also outside the workshops, the in-depth seminars are partly two-day events, where special emphasis is also placed on the ambience.

The in-depth seminars are aimed at experienced tax professionals and those who want to become one.

Working Skills Seminars

You want to develop your secondary virtues: Working Skills Seminars

Within the framework of the working skills seminars, you can train your non-tax-specific skills that are important for success in tax practice. For example, working techniques, creativity or communication skills.

These seminars are held only sporadically.

Update Seminars

You want to be "à jour": Update seminars

In the update seminars, we take changes in tax legislation as well as in related areas of law and changes in tax practice by tax authorities as an opportunity to take a close look at the effects on tax practice. In doing so, the basics are also presented, as far as this makes sense.

Update seminars also include the 90-minute webinars, which are held exclusively online during lunchtime. They focus primarily on current developments.
