ABOUT US

OUR TEAM AND OUR VALUES

We combine a passion for cryptocurrencies with in-depth expertise in tax law and fiduciary knowledge to provide industry-leading advisory services. Our founding in early 2023 was a crucial step towards taking a leading role in cryptocurrency consulting in Switzerland.
With Gilbert Lenherr as our founder, whose path has been shaped by a solid education in auditing, tax law, and crypto, we guarantee access to unparalleled expertise and commitment. Gilbert is supported by an equally dedicated and competent internal team, as well as renowned external experts who can be consulted as partners when needed.
Gilbert regularly speaks and lectures on the topic of taxation of cryptocurrency assets in Switzerland. You can also book him for a presentation.

The creation of Swiss CryptoTax GmbH

Our story begins with Gilbert Lenherr, whose fascination with cryptocurrencies became his profession in 2022. His academic background, crowned by specialisation in the taxation of cryptocurrency assets in Switzerland, revealed a market gap for qualified advice in this area. Swiss CryptoTax GmbH was founded to bridge the gap between traditional tax consulting and the dynamic world of cryptocurrencies. Our name stands for quality, trust, and transparency – values that are essential in the crypto community.

Our team and our values

Behind every successful company is a talented team, and Swiss Crypto Tax GmbH is no different. Our team consists of experts who are not only well-versed in tax consulting but also knowledgeable in the crypto world and we regularly educate ourselves through internal and external training programs covering crypto, taxes, and fiduciary services. We share a common vision: to provide accurate, understandable, and, most importantly, relevant advisory services to our clients. We take pride in offering a unique service through our personal passion for cryptocurrencies and professional expertise in tax consulting.
We stand for a new era of tax consulting, where personal commitment and expertise go hand in hand. Our extensive network of specialists, combined with our ability to make complex matters understandable, sets the standard for the quality of our services. Our motto, “Behind every tax return, there is an individual destiny,” reflects our commitment to stand reliably and empathetically by each client’s side.

Tuula Cheema

Fiduciary Consultant

My professional life started in corporate archives and academic libraries in Finland and later continued in various archive centers of a multinational financial institution in London. Organizing knowledge, i.e. cataloging, classifying and indexing various materials to make them accessible to end users, interested me a lot. I was also the owner of a small retail store for several years and experienced firsthand what it meant to be professionally self-employed. That’s also when my interest in accounting was sparked. I worked for Borsoi AG (now Lenherr & Partner AG) as a clerk for over 12 years, preparing tax returns and company accounts for auditing. In addition, I perform accounting tasks. I am proud/glad to work with competent and dedicated colleagues.
In my free time, I engage in TaiChi, QiQong, Argentine Tango, and learn French and Japanese.
Education:
  • Bachelor of Arts (with a degree in Library Science/Computer Science)
  • Accounting Clerk Course

Laura Reinhardt

Fiduciary Consultant

I gained my first ten years of professional experience in the hospitality industry. In spring 2023, I successfully completed my full-time studies at the Hotel Management School in Zurich. As I grew up with my father’s tax firm – which has been at home with us for years – I have been interested in the world of taxes and the people behind the associated stories since I was a child. That’s why, after completing my full-time studies at the Hotel Management School in Zurich, I decided to change industries and finally gain experience in the fiduciary and tax sector myself. My passion has always been to help people and find solutions to their challenges.
Extract from training and further education:
  • From August 2024 training as a fiduciary with a federal certificate
  • Dipl. Hôtelière-Restauratrice HF
  • Restoration specialist EFZ
In my private life, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, cooking, reading books, being in nature or visiting flea markets to find unique treasures.
