You will find in this comparative table about forty offers proposed by banks and insurance companies for a competitive pillar 3a. The pillar 3a, or tied pension provision, complements the other two pillars, the AHV/IV and the BVG, and can only be taken out by employees and self-employed persons affiliated to the AHV. In addition to supplementing the amount of your pension, the linked pillar 3a can be withdrawn beforehand in order to finance a property, to become self-employed or when leaving Switzerland permanently. These savings allow you to benefit from numerous tax advantages by deducting the contributions from your taxed income. There are differences in terms of taxation, contract duration, beneficiary clauses and the choice of investment of the funds. To obtain better returns and save on your taxes, we advise you to compare the different providers.
