The Swiss “Inheritance Tax Initiative.”
If a proposed 50% inheritance and gift tax passes, wealthy Swiss residents may consider moving out of the country. The federal government will levy this tax in addition to municipal or cantonal taxes.
Currently, there are no federal taxes at the federal level. The taxes will vary from canton to canton, usually over certain thresholds.
Taxpayers can claim a one-off tax exemption of all gifts and estate after the enactment of CHF 50 million (about $59 million).

Will the U.S. Fully Implement OECD Tax?
The Biden administration wanted to enact the “Build Back Better Act” (BBB). The goal was to be OECD-compliant on its 15% global corporate minimum tax and strengthen GILTI.
BBB never came to a vote in the Senate until last week.
On July 27, a deal was reached to scale down BBB – the “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022” (IRA).
IRA includes the 15% CMT but does not include any GILTI changes.
Senators Manchin and Schumer pondered not putting US corporations at a competitive disadvantage and damage the US economy.
