    Directors’ liability in Switzerland
    2019-12-23

    As Switzerland maintains a quite strict legal regime governing the director’s liability, it is immanent for each person holding a board function to know the rules and risks as well the legal consequences in this respect. During the last couple of years Switzerland has introduced various new rules influencing the director’s liability (new transparency rules for management compensations in listed companies, a comprehensive revision of the audit legislation and new statutory rules governing financial accounting), which are mainly applicable for listed companies.

    Fallstricke bei Betreibungsbegehren
    2020-03-13

    Kommt ein Schuldner seinen Verpflichtungen nicht nach, so muss der Gläubiger ein Zwangsvollstreckungsverfahren in die Wege leiten. Dies geschieht in der Regel mit der Einreichung eines Betreibungsbegehrens beim zuständigen Betreibungs- und Konkursamt. Obschon das Stellen eines Betreibungsbegehrens trivial erscheint, führt dies in der Praxis immer wieder zu Rechtsstreitigkeiten, im Rahmen welcher ein - gestützt auf ein fehlerhaft formuliertes Betreibungsbegehren erlassener - Zahlungsbefehl aufgehoben oder gar dessen Nichtigkeit festgestellt wird.

    Obtaining attachment on cryptocurrencies in Switzerland
    2020-03-13

    The general view in Switzerland is that cryptocurrencies are intangible assets sui generis and as such can be subject to regular debt enforcement and insolvency proceedings in Switzerland (provided that these cryptocurrencies have a financial value).

    This article highlights the particularities to be considered when cryptocurrencies are the target of an attachment procedure (ie, a freezing order) in Switzerland.

    Attachment

    The following must be established to obtain an attachment in Switzerland:
