Altiqa

About Altiqa

Altiqa operates from Lugano and Monaco as a group created in 2018 from older Ticino and Monegasque consultancies, the earliest of which dates to 1987. It combines corporate and accounting administration, tax advice, payroll, trust and estate planning, financial and real estate consulting under one brand. Its Lugano trustee company has held FINMA authorisation since 2023. For people and businesses arriving from abroad it runs a relocation programme for individuals and corporates moving to Switzerland, and the Monaco team sets up local companies, handles residence-related formalities, bank accounts and VAT for foreign entities. A separate offer targets professional athletes moving to the Principality. The group communicates in English, Italian and French and presents its team across both offices, with corporate consultants, tax advisers and relocation officers named on the service pages.
