Re: Moving a pension to Switzerland

Basically:

2nd Pillar - Employment Pension Account
3rd Pillar - Voluntary Pension Contribution Account

They both function the same way more or less: tax-free contributions and capital gains, but restrictions on withdrawal. With your 3rd pillar, you can choose provider and how it is invested (from a limited and conservative set however).
