We create the best possible conditions for working for the common good.
Financial commitment provides the underpinnings of a strong and dynamic society. Established by Reichmuth & Co more than 20 years ago, the Rütli-Foundation is an independent umbrella foundation for people who want to do charitable work.
Setting up your own foundation is often a very costly process and takes up a great deal of time and effort. You also face start-up fees and running costs which are charged to the foundation’s capital and eat into the donations. The Rütli-Foundation offers legal, management and tax services and supports you in achieving your goals for the common good efficiently and cost-effectively.
«Your generosity can do a lot of good. The Rütli-Foundation can help you turn your plans into reality: uniquely, simply and effectively.»
Chairman of the Rütli-Foundation

The year 2025 put the global economy to the test. Political tensions, new alliances and an environment of increasing uncertainty characterised the global situation. Although the economy showed stability overall, it was hardly noticeable in everyday life. It seems as if the economy is running on only one cylinder: everything appears to depend on the AI boom.
