The canton in brief

Holdings & management consulting in the canton of Schwyz: what the register shows.

Head offices and management consulting: holdings, participation companies, strategy and organisational consultants. Many of these companies have no website or staff; the register, with its officers and domicile addresses, is often the only way to reach them.

This sector accounts for 11 % of companies classified in the canton of Schwyz, against 7 % across Switzerland. 17 companies in holdings and management consulting were registered in the canton of Schwyz over the past 30 days, 52 over 90 days.

Schwyz benefits from its proximity to Zurich and from its tax regime: the districts of Höfe and March (Pfäffikon, Wollerau, Lachen) concentrate financial companies, holdings and management head offices, while the interior of the canton remains industrial and touristic. Many companies here are domiciled with a fiduciary, which matters for prospecting.
