Re: Retired person moving to CH - big three tax: income, cap gains and wealth

With respect to capital gains on investments, you need to be aware that this only applies to private investors, for those classified as professionals it is considered income and taxed in the normal way. Professional status is normally applied at around 10 transactions per month, but other factors may also be taken into account when the tax authorities make the decision.

Good luck with that,

Jim
