Farrer & Co has announced a new initiative for the firm, building on existing strong relationships with clients and contacts based in Switzerland.
In early June 2011 they established a presence in Zurich, with a view to strengthening the international work and profile they already enjoy in some of the key off-shore jurisdictions around the world. By doing this, the Firm intends to raise its profile within Switzerland and build on the strong relationships we already have there whilst looking to develop the international reach of all aspects of our business.
Private client partner Nick Dunnell and head of tax Robert Field are leading the initiative, which will involve regular visits to Zurich. The Firm will operate out of serviced offices in the centre of Zurich and there are no plans at present to set up a permanent base.
