Financial success may make any investor a potential magnet for litigation. Wealth has never been as vulnerable as it is today.

The Swiss Fixed Annuity

The Swiss Fixed Annuity is a contract with a stable Swiss insurance company that guarantees your principal and all interest payments. It has a flexible duration, and may be liquidated at any time. It is one of the very few interest-bearing investments in Switzerland not subject to Swiss withholding tax. Principal and interest are guaranteed by first class companies, non-guaranteed profit sharing dividends increase your total return. The total return is comparable to that of government bonds. However, the Swiss Fixed Annuity is even more safe than government bonds, since you don't have any market risk. At all times, you know your investment is safe and available.

The Swiss Variable Annuity

The Swiss Variable Annuity is also a contract with a Swiss insurance company. But as with any variable annuity, the return on your investment varies depending on the underlying investments you select. The Swiss Variable Annuity offers various sub-accounts managed by the Swiss insurance company through which the annuity contract is written or by specifically selected asset managers. Of special interest could be the " Adventurem Secure Portfolio" which gives you access to first class hedge fund portfolios with an exceptional track record. For U.S. investors, an important advantage of the Swiss Variable Annuity is that growth within the contract is tax-deferred. This is not the case with the Swiss Fixed Annuity.

Benefits Of The Swiss Fixed and Variable Annuity

Both the Swiss Fixed Annuity and the Swiss Variable Annuity provide the following benefits:

Safe country: Switzerland is known as a stable and safe country, its neutrality and political system guarantee utmost safety. Switzerland has a long tradition in the world of finance and more than 35% of all worldwide private-placed assets have been invested in or through Switzerland.

Safe companies: The Swiss Federal Bureau for Private Insurance strictly regulates the insurance industry. The result is that in the more than 150-year history of Swiss insurance, not one company has ever had to close its doors or failed to meet its obligations. This untainted record results from not only close regulation, but a tradition of discretion, discipline, prudence, and conservatism - qualities that gives the Swiss insurance industry its unmatched reputation as the safest and most respected in the world.

Swiss Privacy: Swiss law forbids insurance companies, brokers, or anyone else from disclosing information about your account to anyone other than you, except by the order of a Swiss court. This includes all governmental authorities. The penalties are severe and include fines and prison sentences for violators.

Swiss Asset Protection: Swiss law protects a properly structured Swiss insurance investment from bankruptcy proceedings and all future creditors. Swiss laws are designed to keep insurance proceeds safe and sound for you and your loved ones, and completely out of the reach of anyone else.

Separate estate planning: These solutions allow you to make distributions separate from your ordinary estate and to designate as beneficiary whoever you may wish. Upon your death the insurance company will transfer the funds to the beneficiaries within a few days after receipt of the death certificate. No power of attorney, no last will and no certificate of inheritance are required.

Currency Diversification: You can own your Swiss Fixed Annuity in U.S. dollars or you can choose the Swiss franc or the Euro. And if you change your mind, you can change your certificate from one currency to another.
