Die «Initiative für eine Zukunft» (Erbschaftssteuerinitiative) will Erbvorbezüge ab 50 Mio. CHF mit 50 % besteuern. Für Schweizer Familienunternehmer:innen wäre das fatal, denn ihr Vermögen liegt grösstenteils im Unternehmen und dient somit der Sicherung der Unternehmensnachfolge.   Wir von PwC Schweiz haben Familienunternehmer:innen nach ihrer Meinung gefragt: 8 von 10 Betroffenen hätten nicht genügend liquide Mittel, um die Mehrbelastung der zusätzlichen Erbschaftssteuer tragen zu können. Würden die Betroffenen als Ausweichmanöver abwandern, entstünde der Schweizer Volkswirtschaft ein Schaden in Milliardenhöhe. Das wäre für unsere Volkswirtschaft desaströs.   ➡ Warum es das zu verhindern gilt, lesen Sie in unserer neusten Studie: https://bit.ly/3LmHiQ4   📎 Mehr erfahren Sie unter https://lnkd.in/dN7T6CyS   #pwcforfamilybusinesses

✨ This Monday, we swapped our desks for the streets of Stadt Zürich for a clean-up team challenge. Various volunteering opportunities are open to all PwC Switzerland employees ✨ In around two hours we picked up more than 42 kg of garbage including approx. 3 kg of cigarette butts in the center of Zurich. One cigarette butt contaminates up to 500 liters of water and the average time for a plastic bottle to completely decompose is around 450 years🥤 🚬 It was a lot of fun and a great team challenge at the same time we gave something back to the community. Making a beautiful city a bit cleaner. A bit thank you Entsorgung + Recycling Zürich and Niels Michel for organising 💫💦🌱🌍 #togetherwesolve #volunteering #sustainability #communityofsolvers #teambuilding
