In order to successfully set up and operate crypto, blockchain or fintech services in Switzerland, regulatory burdens must be overcome, and compliance obligations be met. Therefore, MME has created its FinTech Team, led by Dr. Luka Mueller (Compliance), Dr. Andreas Glarner (Legal) and Thomas Linder (Tax), in order to combine knowledge from a legal, tax and compliance perspective and to assist crypto, blockchain or fintech clients in the management of complex projects. The team consists of more than 20 additional technology, banking, corporate law, distribution, tax, compliance and AML experts jointly providing solutions and expertise.
