Cette édition spéciale réunit les commentaires de ces textes publiés dans le cadre du Commentaire romand du Code des obligations. Les dispositions sur le droit de révocation en matière de démarchage et d'excursion-vente et sur le contrat de voyage à forfait sont commentées pour la première fois en français. Le commentaire de la nouvelle loi sur le crédit à la consommation, qui vise avant tout à prévenir le surendettement du consommateur preneur d'un crédit à la consommation (vente par acomptes, petit crédit, leasing de biens de consommation, crédit en compte-courant, cartes de crédit et de client avec option de crédit), est même le premier à analyser de façon systématique les dispositions de la nouvelle LCC entrée en vigueur le 1er janvier 2003.

Towards fully digital client onboarding and lifecycle management: the new CDB 27 and FINMA’s revised Circular 2016/7

Towards fully digital client onboarding and lifecycle management: the new…

<p class="MsoBodyText">Two developments advance digital client onboarding and lifecycle management in Switzerland.</p> <p class="MsoBodyText">First, FINMA’s partially revised Circular 2016/7 ’Video and online identification’, in force since 1 November 2026, admits the forthcoming Swiss e-ID and QR-coded identity documents, while extending liveness detection and residence verification to further online identification routes. Second, the Swiss Bankers Association’s revised due diligence agreement (CDB 27), effective 1 January 2027, aligns its form and documentation requirements with digital processes in a technology-neutral manner, accepting now officially electronically transmitted beneficial ownership forms and digital copies.</p> <p class="MsoBodyText">Together, they enable end-to-end digital processes – subject to stricter security standards and a requirement of verifiable attribution.</p>
