Summary of taxes on financial instruments

Do you know what the tax level is on:

  • Dividends from Swiss stocks or ETFs
  • Interest from Swiss corporate bonds
  • Interest from bank saving accounts
  • Interest from Swiss Investment funds
  • Realized capital gains (sell of Swiss equity/ETF with profit)

Everything is taxed as normal income except the last one.
Realized capital gains are taxed free unless you are classified as professional investor

Note -: I am talking about actual tax and NOT withholding tax (which is like a provisional tax)
