  • Clarity on Swiss Taxes 2019
    Clarity on Swiss Taxes Playing to natural strengths 4 16 Corporate taxation Individual taxation Clarity on Swiss Taxes EDITORIAL Welcome Switzerland remains competitive on the global tax stage according to KPMG’s “Swiss Tax Report 2019”. This annual study analyzes corporate and individual tax rates in Switzerland and internationally, analyzing data to draw comparisons between locations. After a long and drawn-out reform process, the Swiss Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF) is reaching the final stages of maturity. Some cantons have already responded by adjusting their corporate tax rates, and others are sure to follow in 2019 and 2020. These steps towards lower tax rates confirm that the Swiss cantons are committed to competitive taxation. This will be welcomed by companies as they seek stability amid the turbulence of global protectionist trends, like tariffs, Brexit and digital service tax. It’s not just in Switzerland that tax laws are being revised. The national reforms of recent years are part of a global shift towards international harmonization but also increased legislation. For tax departments, these regulatory developments mean increased pressure. Their challenge is to safeguard compliance, while also managing the risk of double or over-taxation. In our fast-paced world, data-driven technology and digital enablers will play an increasingly important role in achieving these aims. Peter Uebelhart Head of Tax & Legal, KPMG Switzerland Going forward, it’s important that Switzerland continues to play to its natural strengths to remain an attractive business location and global trading partner. That means creating certainty by finalizing the corporate tax reform, building further on its network of FTAs, delivering its “open for business” message and pressing ahead with the Digital Switzerland strategy.

  • A New Data Management Infrastructure for Improved Analysis and Real-Time Publication of flood Events in the Canton of Aargau
    EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT (EMERGENCY PLANNING, EARLY WARNING, INTERVENTION, RECOVERY) A new data management infrastructure for improved analysis and real-time publication of flood events in the Canton of Aargau Christophe Lienert1 ABSTRACT In order to take appropriate countermeasures before and during flood events, decision makers, crisis committees, and the public need fast, secure and easy access to real-time hydro- logical data. In order to meet the increased needs and expectations of internal and external parties, new Desktop and Web-tools for real-time data analysis, data collation, interoperabili- ty, and interactive visualization have been introduced, and further developed by the Swiss Canton of Aargau. Customizable tools for hydrological data analysis and cartographic publication are now available, tailored to early warning and flood management. Various features of the newly launched data infrastructure, and the real-time map HydroWeb, are highlighted. KEYWORDS early warning; flood management; hydrology; real-time cartography; data interoperability INTRODUCTION In the Swiss Canton of Aargau, flood hydrology, emergency management and early warning is a high priority as four of the five largest rivers of Switzerland join on its territory. Superfi- cial waters of about two thirds of Switzerland's area, plus some parts of Germany and Austria, flow through the Canton and are discharged by the Rhine. Floods of different severity have occurred in the past, and will occur in the future. Timely and precise information about the state of the waters, as well as forecasts and runoff predictions provided by Swiss Federal agencies, and coordination with upstream Cantons are vital to prepare for, counteract and coping with floods.

    Departement Bildung, Kultur und Sport des Kantons Aargau Bildungs-, Kultur- und Sportdirektion des Kantons Basel-Landschaft Erziehungsdepartement des Kantons Basel-Stadt Departement Bildung und Kultur des Kantons Solothurn Communiqué Bildungsraum Nordwestschweiz Regierungen streben gemeinsames Bildungssystem an Kantone Aargau, Basel-Landschaft, Basel-Stadt und Solothurn erreichen den Durchbruch. 29. Mai 2007 - SPERRFRIST: 29.5.2007, 12.15 Uhr Die Regierungen der Kantone Aargau, Basel-Landschaft, Basel-Stadt und Solothurn be- absichtigen eine gemeinsame Weiterentwicklung ihrer Bildungssysteme. Die Wahl der Schuleingangsstufe (Grund- oder Basisstufe), die Einführung von Tagesstrukturen sowie die pädagogische Umsetzung interkantonaler Vorgaben soll gemeinsam erfolgen. Kinder und Jugendliche sollen so gefördert werden, dass Lerntempo und Spezialisierungen ih- ren individuellen Fähigkeiten entsprechen. Die drei Kantone Aargau, Basel-Landschaft und Basel-Stadt wollen zudem die Sekundarstufe I gemeinsam ausgestalten. Die Zu- sammenarbeit der vier Kantone soll institutionalisiert werden. Unter allen Kantonen weisen die vier Nachbarkantone Aargau, Basel-Landschaft, Basel-Stadt und Solothurn die grössten Unterschiede der Schulsysteme auf. Um sicher zu stellen, dass die- se Strukturdifferenzen bei der Umsetzung der nationalen Harmonisierungsvorgaben ausgegli- chen werden, haben sich die vier Regierungen zu einem weit reichenden Schritt entschieden. Historische Chance nutzen Die Regierungen wollen im Rahmen der nationalen Vorgaben ein gemeinsames Bildungs- system entwickeln und so den Bildungsraum Nordwestschweiz realisieren. Sie verfolgen dieses Ziel im Wissen darum, dass es von jedem der beteiligten Kantone die Bereitschaft zu einer we- sentlichen Umsteuerung seiner bisherigen kantonalen Politik verlangt. Vor 20 Jahren, als in der Nordwestschweiz aufgrund der damals anstehenden Strukturreformen in den Kantonen Basel- Stadt und Bern das letzte Mal eine Harmonisierung versucht wurde, hat man diese politische Konsequenz gescheut.
