On June 19, the Federal Council adopted the report at its meeting in response to Postulate Walti 23.3752, “Remaining Attractive, Securing Finances: Switzerland Needs a Long-Term Tax and Location Strategy.”
The report shows that, thanks to an overall attractive tax framework and a broad revenue base, the federal government currently stands on a solid financial footing. At the same time, it becomes clear that, against the backdrop of international, demographic, and technological developments—particularly in the area of corporate taxation—action is needed to secure tax revenues in the long term.
Possible adjustments are to be examined in depth in collaboration with the cantons and the business community; initial results are expected by early 2027. With regard to income, wealth, and consumption taxes, the Federal Council sees no immediate need for action beyond the reform projects already underway.
