Swiss Financial Services Act – FIDLEG

Swiss regulation FIDLEG (Financial Services Act) is a comprehensive legal framework aimed at (but not limited to) investor protection mainly at the point of sale similar to EU’s MIFID/MIFID II directives but also includes parts of EU’s PRIIPs and prospectus directive regulation. Upon entry into force on January 1, 2020 (many of the obligations will have phasing-in timelines between 6 months and 2 years) FIDLEG provides for a stringent set of rules for financial service providers providing financial services in Switzerland or to clients in Switzerland.
