Swiss Tax Reform Package Approved: Update and Outlook

The Swiss National Council approves the proposed tax reform package!

Although slight differences regarding the capital contribution principle remain to be settled, the majority of member of the National Council sees the adopted text of the bill as a viable compromise.
