We’re pleased to welcome Nicolai Fischli to Alfred as Senior Tax Counsel.

With over 20 years of experience in corporate and international tax advisory, Nicolai strengthens our ability to support founders and investors on tax matters that are often critical to scaling, structuring, and executing transactions.

Background & Expertise

Nicolai started his career at a Big Four firm in Zurich, where he spent a decade in tax advisory and qualified as a Swiss Certified Tax Expert.

He later served as Head of Group Tax for a listed international technology group, gaining hands-on experience in managing tax functions within a global business. From 2017 to 2019, he led the tax department of a major auditing and consulting firm in Liechtenstein as a Partner.

Since 2019, Nicolai has been working as an independent tax advisor, focusing on complex and cross-border matters. His expertise includes mergers and acquisitions, succession planning, international reorganizations, transfer pricing, group structure optimization, and tax litigation. He also brings extensive experience working with Swiss tax authorities, including leading tax audits and negotiating tax rulings.

Role at Alfred

At Alfred, Nicolai supports founders and investors across key areas such as:

• M&A tax advisory and transaction structuring

• Tax-efficient group and financing structures

• International expansion and reorganizations

• Tax rulings and interactions with authorities

• Outsourced tax function for growing companies

  
  

His approach is pragmatic and closely aligned with business realities, ensuring that tax considerations support, rather than slow down, strategic decisions.

We’re excited to have Nicolai on board and to further strengthen how we support companies across legal, business, and tax matters.
