IFLN International Financial and Legal Network
 

 

If you are looking for legal and financial services abroad, it is often difficult to find the right professionals and to know whom to trust.

The International Financial and Legal Network (IFLN) was established in order to give you access to a unique, worldwide network of experienced and trusted specialists and institutions in legal, tax and financial services.

If you are interested in investing internationally, you need specialists who understand not only the laws and regulations of your own country, but also those of the foreign jurisdictions where you may wish to invest, do business or reside. IFLN brings together some of the best professionals and institutions in their fields and in all of the most important jurisdictions.

 

IFLN provides advisory services to direct you to the right professionals to meet your international needs, whether in the areas of financial planning and investments, international real estate, tax and estate planning, banking, insurance, or other financial and legal services. IFLN offers a free online assessment service as well as a range of more comprehensive consulting services.

Our online assessment service allows you to have your situation reviewed by IFLN specialists on the basis of a comprehensive questionnaire which you can submit via our website or by fax. Depending on your preference, you then either receive our recommendation of the most appropriate service providers for your needs, or your questionnaire will be forwarded to the relevant providers who will contact you directly.

If you require a thorough analysis of your situation by independent specialists, you may wish to arrange for an appointment with one of IFLN’s consultants. IFLN also offers an initial consultation by telephone if desired.

IFLN consultants in Switzerland will carefully review your personal situation, offer you a variety of available options and work with you to develop a plan that will help you reach your objectives. Your case is reviewed from all relevant perspectives including tax consequences, jurisdictional restrictions and reporting requirements. Once you have agreed to your individual plan, the most appropriate service providers are selected to work on your case to help you accomplish your goals.

 

IFLN is a unique organisation in that all its members have been carefully assessed by our admission panel. Admission to membership is restricted to professionals and institutions who can prove outstanding achievements in their relevant field, supported by excellent references. Once admitted, all members are continuously monitored and their activities are regularly reviewed to ensure that the high standards required by IFLN are maintained and that your needs will be met by the most reputable and trustworthy professionals at all times.
