Swiss Serenity Fortifies Legal Framework for Second Pillar Asset Repatriation
Event summary
- Swiss Serenity has enhanced its LPP asset repatriation platform with a legally compliant electronic representation mandate, aligning with articles 32 et seq. of the Swiss Code of Obligations.
- The process involves secure authentication, electronic mandate generation, legally signed repatriation requests, and complete legal traceability.
- Swiss Serenity has helped over 110,000 clients recover 328 million francs in unclaimed second pillar assets.
- The company does not manage funds or require a FINMA license, as its service is limited to administrative assistance for asset repatriation.

The company's structured approach positions it as a key player in a market where regulatory clarity and client trust are paramount. With over 110,000 clients and 328 million francs recovered, Swiss Serenity is carving out a niche in a fragmented industry, potentially setting a precedent for digital mandates in administrative procedures.
