Content

The issue of remuneration for the exchange of services between affiliated companies has also become increasingly important in Switzerland in recent years. This is reflected not least in the fact that the cantonal and federal courts are increasingly having to deal with transfer pricing disputes, whether in inter-cantonal or inter-national situations. On the one hand, the integration seminar places the topic theoretically in the context of Swiss tax law and, on the other hand, teaches how transfer prices for typical transactions are determined in practice. Compact workshops of 50 minutes each are held for this purpose. Particular attention will also be paid to how the topic can be implemented pragmatically in SME structures.

Intellectual property rights

-

Workshop

Nathanael Zahnd and Balthasar Denger on their workshop: "In the age of digital transformation, intellectual property (IP) rights are becoming increasingly important, especially in the exchange of services between affiliated companies. In our workshop, we will shed light on the complex interrelationships of the intra-group attribution of intellectual property rights - participants will discuss not only the various aspects of ownership, but also the strategic and legal challenges associated with the use and protection of IP. A particular focus will be on the application of suitable transfer pricing methods to ensure that the value of intellectual property rights is allocated within the group in an arm's length and transparent manner."

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.

Seminars Romandie

The ISIS in French-speaking Switzerland

Tax Trips

You want to expand your horizons: Tax Trips

The Tax Trips take you abroad and offer the opportunity to combine the useful with the pleasant.
