Tax-neutral cash flow through clear separation of levels
Swiss holding companies remain a key element of international structures. Dividends from operating companies flow to the holding company on the basis of double taxation agreements, where no income tax is usually payable thanks to the participation deduction.
In a next step, distributions can be forwarded to a parent holding company, for example in the UK. With appropriate prior clarification, payment without withholding tax is also possible here.
Practice shows that the added value lies not in the tax rate, but in the predictability, legal certainty, and exit capability of the structure.
