Every 6th SME is affected by open succession*.


According to Dun & Bradstreet's analysis, a total of 93,009 SMEs in Switzerland have a succession problem as of April 2022.


This is shown by the analysis of the age of the owners (sole proprietors) and shareholders (companies) or board members (stock corporations) entered in the commercial register. With a total of 614,247 companies analyzed, this results in a relative share of 15.1 percent of companies with a succession problem. Micro and small companies with 1-49 employees are particularly affected.


Among medium-sized companies with 50-249 employees, only 7.9 percent are facing an open succession. A look at the individual sectors reveals major differences.

The greatest succession problem exists in the printing and publishing industry (23.2%), in architectural offices (18.9%) and in business and tax consulting and repair services (both 18.4%).
