AG (Aktiengesellschaft) - is a business structure that requires a minimum capital of 100,000 CHF, of which 20% or a minimum of 50,000 CHF must be paid up front.

The shareholders are liable only to the extent of their contributions to the share capital. The names of the shareholders of a GmbH are published in the Swiss Register of Commerce.

Sole Proprietorship – is a business structure that can be established by a private individual who is a Swiss resident with the purpose of conducting commercial activities. There is no requirement regarding a minimum capital, but the company must be registered into the Register of Commerce if the annual turnover exceeds 100,000 CHF.
