Recently I was discussing this with a friend who was planning to start a business in Switzerland. He was set for a lengthy registration process until he learned about the option of buying a ready-made company. This solution allowed him to save time and get started right away. I was particularly interested in the idea of a Shell company - a pre-registered company with a clean history, ready to use. If you are also considering this option, it is useful to read the material, which explains in detail the advantages and types of such companies.
