Zug, the smallest canton of Switzerland and neighbouring canton to Zürich, is one of the immediate operational areas of our Zürich detective agency. For companies, private individuals, and authorities, our trained detectives in the Canton of Zug investigate a wide variety of cases – frequently for victims of the notorious shell companies – and provide legally admissible investigative results: +41 44 5522 264.
The Canton of Zug belongs to the Zürich metropolitan area and is one of the world’s most important trading centres for agricultural products (coffee) and raw materials (crude oil). In 2022, the canton generated a gross domestic product (GDP) of over CHF 25 billion – a figure that continues to rise. Among the largest companies are Roche Diagnostics International, Siemens Switzerland, Novartis AG, Coop, and Johnson & Johnson. Of the canton’s 132,556 residents (2023), 128,379 are employed across various sectors, accounting for 102,292 full-time equivalents (2022). The thriving economy has made Zug the wealthiest canton in Switzerland, with more companies establishing themselves or opening branches each year. The primary reason is the canton’s tax advantages; Zug remains Switzerland’s tax haven. While these tax benefits are often viewed critically in Switzerland and across Europe, they contribute to continuous economic growth within the canton and a very low unemployment rate of 1.9 percent in December 2024.
Such tax havens also have a downside: shell and mailbox companies exploit these advantages. Companies that do not actually exist or are not domiciled in Switzerland are registered in Zug to illegitimately take advantage of local benefits. Our commercial detective agency in the Canton of Zug uncovers these tax offenders and gladly assists cantonal authorities with comprehensive research that results in legally admissible investigative reports. Equally, we conduct discreet checks on suspicious employees. We are happy to take on your case as well – simply describe the situation to us in a non-binding phone call or send an email to kontakt@kurtz-detektei-schweiz.ch.
Residents of the Canton of Zug belong to the Swiss population with the highest incomes, enjoy a correspondingly high standard of living, and appear generally content. Yet not everyone is always at ease, as evidenced by the enquiries to our private detective agency in Zug: custody and maintenance disputes, as well as surveillance to verify a partner’s fidelity, are the main tasks of our private investigators.
Infidelity is a topic that can drive the affected party to despair as long as there is only suspicion but no evidence. Uncertainty about whether a partner is cheating is agonising and often leads to depression – our detectives in Zug provide clarity.
In maintenance investigations, questions usually focus on whether the ex-partner has disclosed all income – are they working undeclared, is there a hidden secondary employment, was an inheritance or savings contract concealed? Other cases concern secret cohabitation, as living in a new marital-style partnership changes claims to spousal maintenance.
Custody proceedings generally involve determining whether the ex-partner and their environment are suitable to care for a child. There may be alcohol or drug dependency, medication addiction, gambling addiction, violent behaviour, criminal activity, or contact with persons who negatively influence the child.
