Tfp Treuhand Ag

What Tfp Treuhand Ag does

TFP Treuhand AG is a privately held Swiss fiduciary and professional services firm headquartered at Weissbadstrasse 14 in Appenzell, founded in 1983 and operating with 11-50 employees. The firm self-describes as a "mittelgrosses Treuhandunternehmen" (medium-sized trust company) serving local, regional, and international clients across Switzerland. Its customer base is horizontal: small and medium enterprises (KMU) across multiple industries form the primary segment, while private individuals and a smaller base of cooperatives, associations, and foundations represent secondary segments.

The company operates an integrated multi-practice model built around five service pillars: Treuhand (accounting, payroll, legal advice, and business development), Steuern (tax planning, returns, rulings, and representation before authorities), Wirtschaftsprüfung (statutory audits, due diligence, IKS assessments, and Sachwalter mandates), IT-Lösungen (consulting, software sales, cloud computing, and support as an Abacus Bronze-Partner), and Immobilien (listings, property management, marketing, legal advice, and market-value estimation). Underlying technology is web-based accounting delivered through the Abacus AbaWeb platform, supplemented by Fernwartung remote-maintenance tooling, a self-serve client portal, and a website with downloadable resources and newsletter subscription. Partnerships include Abacus Research AG (technology), AMMARKT AG (marketing/strategy), and Anderthalb.ch (web implementation).

Commercial mechanics are typical of Swiss fiduciary services: revenue is generated on a professional-services, hours-worked basis in line with Treuhand|suisse recommendations, with quotes provided on request and no public pricing. Distribution is predominantly direct, face-to-face at the Appenzell headquarters or on client premises, with the AbaWeb platform enabling self-service for smaller clients. Marketing relies on the corporate website, a TFP News editorial section, and newsletter distribution. Ownership is not publicly disclosed, the firm is not listed, and no parent company, subsidiaries, funding rounds, M&A, or leadership changes beyond the documented Geschäftsleitung role of Martin Oberle and Datenschutzverantwortlicher role of Simon Koster are present in the source data.
