Lukas Brunner

Lukas Brunner advises foreign founders, fintech operators, and international holdings on Swiss corporate formation and financial-services licensing from the Switzerland Firma Zurich office. His engagements typically begin at the entity-design stage, choosing between an AG or a GmbH, sizing the share capital against FINMA-licensing thresholds where relevant, and coordinating the Cantonal Commercial Register filing through the notarial appointment.

He handles VAT registration with the Federal Tax Administration directly when a client passes the CHF 100,000 turnover threshold, and acts as the primary point of contact for bank-account opening with tier-1 Swiss banks. Lukas works principally with German, UK, and Israeli clients, in German and English.
