Spending versus saving
To enjoy a comfortable retirement, you need enough pension and investment income to cover your expenses while you preserve your wealth over the long term. Choose between an investment-based strategy and a spending-based one, according to your level of income and assets.
Invest for the long term
An investment-based strategy is focused on leveraging your wealth for the long term. Our advisors will recommend the best investments for you based on your financial objectives, investor profile, and investment horizon.
Enjoy the fruits of your labor
A spending-based strategy lets you achieve your retirement aspirations, whether that involves taking a trip around the world, donating time to your favorite charity, or becoming a patron of the arts. Our advisors will help you draw up the necessary budget and select the right investments to supplement your second- and third-pillar income. They will assess your financial situation and goals, taking into account the level of lifestyle you wish to maintain.
Give a gift to your children
If you already have enough income for the retirement you want, you may want to give part of your wealth to your children during your lifetime. Such gifts have considerable tax benefits: up to CHF 50,000 per child per calendar year is tax-exempt, provided the giver is a tax resident of Vaud. Gifts above CHF 50,000 are taxed on a sliding scale depending on the amount.
