RISTER, a fiduciary firm based in Geneva, is launching its Business Center in the heart of the city to welcome freelancers, cross-border workers, entrepreneurs (GmbH/Sàrl, AG/SA), associations, and foundations. The space offers business domiciliation, fully equipped offices, meeting rooms, and professional administrative services. It provides a turnkey solution with tax, accounting, and legal support. The center notably allows clients to demonstrate real business activity and economic substance. With this new initiative, RISTER strengthens its position as a strategic partner for businesses in Switzerland.
In 2025, setting up a GmbH (Sàrl) in Switzerland remains more accessible thanks to its low capital requirement of CHF 20,000, flexible management, and reduced operating costs—but it requires transparency regarding the shareholders. The AG (SA) offers more credibility, shareholder anonymity, free transfer of shares, and appeals more to investors. However, it demands a CHF 100,000 capital and a more formal governance structure. The choice depends on the business profile, funding needs, and growth strategy.
RISTER is a recognized fiduciary firm, a member of FIDUCIAIRE|SUISSE (Geneva Section), ensuring high-quality services. It supports businesses and individuals in accounting, taxation, payroll management, and company creation. Its membership in FIDUCIAIRE|SUISSE attests to its expertise, reliability, and commitment to industry standards.

In Switzerland, the use of a corporate seal or stamp is not mandatory and has no legal value. However, it is commonly used on invoices, quotes, and official correspondence to enhance professionalism. Some countries require a seal to validate commercial documents, which can be useful for Swiss companies operating internationally. There are various types of stamps, including ink stamps, embossed seals, and digital stamps. With digitalization, certified electronic signatures have become a more efficient and legally recognized alternative.
