Why found a LLC?

The limited liability company (LLC) is one of the most frequently chosen legal forms for companies in Switzerland. In the case of a LLC, the shareholders are only liable up to the amount of their regular contributions and are exempt from personal financial obligations.

A LLC is founded by one or more shareholders and must be entered in the commercial register. It is a legal entity and therefore an independent legal entity. The management of the LLC is the responsibility of the management, which is appointed by the shareholders.

The benefits of a LLC

  • Starting capital of just CHF 20,000 is required.
  • The shareholders have limited liability. This means that liability is limited to company assets.
  • The company name can be chosen almost freely, only the addition LLC must be included.
  • The conversion of a LLC into a joint stock company is possible without prior dissolution.
  • Only one natural or legal person is required to establish a LLC.
  • The admission of new shareholders and the transfer of company shares is easy.

The disadvantages of a LLC

  • Organs, capital and common investments are publicly available in the commercial register. It is not possible for owners to remain anonymous.
  • The so-called double taxation applies to a LLC. This means that, on the one hand, a tax is levied on the income and capital of the LLC and, on the other hand, income and assets are taxed on the shareholder.
  • Certain bodies are mandatory and there is an increased administrative burden.
  • Managing persons of a LLC are not entitled to unemployment benefits.
