ethical question: can I go work for my company's client?

Hello,
first of all great forum! It is very useful, especially the employment part! I need to ask question that is looking more in to the ethics point of view.

Lets assume this situation:

We have a corporation "A" that is providing some services to a client "B".Both corporations are located in Switzerland in the IT and Financial sector. I`m working in the corporation "A" and i`m part of the team that is providing the services, but i`m outsourced in another country. Is it ethical to quit my job and start working for the client "B" as a consultant for receiving the same services? Is it possible to harm the relationships between "A" and "B" just by applying to the position?

Is it possible that there is a contract clause between "A" and "B" that prohibits employee transfer during the business relations?


Thanks for the help in advance.
