Swiss Civil Code

¹ The spouses’ mu­tu­al en­ti­tle­ments to ter­min­a­tion be­ne­fits or a share of a pen­sion are off­set. The pen­sion en­ti­tle­ment is off­set be­fore the share of the pen­sion awar­ded to the en­titled spouse is con­ver­ted in­to a life-long pen­sion.

² Ter­min­a­tion be­ne­fits may only be off­set against a share of a pen­sion if the spouses and the oc­cu­pa­tion­al pen­sion in­sti­tu­tions agree.
