Comparative cost savings

A look at the figures shows the enormous savings potential:

  • AGM with 150 shareholders: A traditional general meeting costs around CHF 102,100, while a virtual general meeting only costs CHF 22,200. This means an impressive cost reduction 78%.
  • AGM with 500 shareholders: Physical costs amount to around CHF 202,800, while the virtual version costs just CHF 25,700. The savings are therefore a whopping 87%.

This difference shows that virtual general meetings are not only an alternative, but also a clear cost advantage.

Which costs are omitted?

The biggest savings result from the elimination of numerous “traditional” cost factors:

Infrastructure and logistics

  • No room or hall rental
  • No need for furniture and decoration
  • Less technology for on-site video and audio transmissions
