Revised Insurance Supervision Act

As a matter of principle, arbitration proceedings in civil disputes must be preceded by an attempt at conciliation (Art. 197 ZPO). The aim of such a conciliation hearing is, on the one hand, to relieve the burden on the courts and, on the other hand, to give the parties the opportunity to find a sustainable solution.
Company succession under inheritance law often poses major challenges, as the current Swiss inheritance law does not recognise any special provisions for companies. This is why the Federal Council is proposing specific measures to facilitate company succession in its dispatch of 10 June 2022. The first amendments to the law on compulsory portions already came into force on 1 January 2023. The aim of the reform is to ensure greater stability for companies.
As is well known, the partially revised Code of Criminal Procedure came into force on January 1, 2024. The aim of the revision was, among other things, to improve the suitability of individual provisions in practice, but also to enshrine the long-standing case law of the Federal Supreme Court in law. The amendments have also resulted in procedural changes from the perspective of the defense or the accused.
