www.fusg.ch - an overview of the new Swiss Merger Act

The new Swiss Merger Act establishes a comprehensive set of rules for mergers, spin-offs, changes of corporate form as well as for the transfer of assets and liabilities. The new Swiss Merger Act broadens extensively the range of possible structures for acquisitions and reorganizations and will thus have an important impact on strategic decisions in this field.

The English version of fusg.ch offers not only an overview of the new Swiss Merger Act, but also executive summaries of the different types of transactions. The English site will be updated and developed along with the more detailed German version.

The new Swiss Merger Act came into force by July 1, 2004.
