Der Datendiebstahl in Liechtenstein reicht bis in die Schweiz. Ein Jus-Professor sagt: «Gibt es einen Skandal im Ausland, schwappt dieser zwangsläufig zu uns herüber»
Nach dem Hackerangriff auf den Finanzplatz Liechtenstein werden erneut Forderungen nach einer Reform der Schweizer Familienstiftung laut. Doch es gibt auch Kritiker.
Jus-Professor Dominique Jakob from the University of Zurich calls for the liberalization of the Swiss Family Foundation. He believes that the current legal restrictions on the Family Foundation limit its use and prevent it from being a valuable tool for generationally transferring wealth and business succession. According to Jakob, only a small amendment to the Swiss Civil Code (ZGB) and additional governance provisions would be needed for the revival of the Family Foundation.
The professor argues that the Family Foundation offers a missing instrument for generationally transferring wealth and business succession, not only for the very wealthy, but also for broader population segments.
