Fees

Low fees that you can mostly deduct from your taxes

The flat management fee consists of a fee of 0.30% for general account management and a fee of 0.09% for asset management.

The breakdown of the fee simplifies the deduction of costs on your tax return. Unlike other digital asset managers that do not provide such a breakdown, you can fully deduct the account management fee from taxes with finpension.

Additionally, there are costs for the funds used (TER). These range from 0.08% to 0.10% for the standard strategies Global, Switzerland, and Sustainable.

As a marketing initiative and to benefit from the increased willingness of domestic bank customers to switch, we have decided to waive the fee charges for the entire year of 2025.

No hidden fees

Transparent fees are not a given

But the low flat-rate fee is not enough. Compared to other providers, you can save even where you might not even notice it. Here are a few examples of the advantages of our investment solution:

No margin when changing into other currencies

Before you can buy funds in other currencies, your provider must convert the money into the appropriate currency. Most providers will earn money when they change your money into a foreign currency. They charge you a higher exchange rate and take part of it for themselves. finpension does not charge a surcharge on money exchanged into other currencies. This way more money gets into the funds you are entitled to. The same applies to the sale of the funds and the exchange back into Swiss francs.

No issuing commission

Some providers charge a commission of up to 5% when the fund is issued. The fee is deducted from the deposit before the money is invested in the funds. Therefore, fewer fund units can be purchased than with finpension. finpension does not charge an issuing commission. The entire payment is invested in the funds. The same applies to the sale of the funds. Here, too, in contrast to other providers, finpension does not charge any fees (redemption commission).

Optimized withholding tax

Dividends and interest are subject to withholding tax in most countries (known as «Verrechnungssteuer» in Switzerland). To keep this withholding tax as low as possible, we focus on funds with the right fund domicile.

We also offer reporting for the flat-rate tax credit (DA-1) of US withholding tax within selected ETFs. With a US dividend yield of around 2 % and a withholding tax of 15 %, the flat-rate tax credit generates a yield advantage of 0.30 % for you (subject to authorisation by your tax authority).

More value

Savings that pay off

With banks and insurance companies, you quickly pay one percent more per year for your investment. What may not sound like much at first glance, actually adds up to a lot of money over time.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about finpension's Investment Solution

To open an initial portfolio, you must be a resident of Switzerland. You must also be liable for tax in Switzerland and not be subject to unlimited tax liability in any other country. Partial tax liability (e.g. due to property ownership abroad) is possible, but unlimited tax liability must be limited to Switzerland. Furthermore, you must be at least 18 years old and must not be a US person.

finpension is a passive wealth manager. We do not actively intervene in the allocation of your investment strategy, as an active intervention only rarely generates an additional return. In most cases, active management does exactly the opposite. For this reason, finpension focuses on passive investment strategies consisting primarily of ETFs (except for private markets). In addition, we offer our clients the opportunity to customize their investment strategy and define the allocation themselves.

As part of the registration process, we will ask you a few questions about your financial situation, your knowledge of financial investments and the wealth management service, and your investment horizon. Based on your answers, we will calculate how much risk you can take, and which investment strategies suit you accordingly.

Rebalancing means that the allocation of your portfolio is regularly brought back ‘in-line’ with your investment strategy. Rebalancing makes sense in order to maintain your risk level.

Experience shows that it is better to think long-term and invest regularly rather than waiting for the perfect time.
