Zurich is one of the world's leading private banking centers and one of Europe's most important financial markets. The institutions clustered around Bahnhofstrasse and Paradeplatz, including UBS, Julius Baer, Swiss Re, and Zurich Insurance, generate continuous demand for interpreting at board level, in regulatory proceedings, and during cross-border M&A.
The city's commercial court, the Handelsgericht Zurich, hears complex disputes under Swiss procedural codes, and Swiss Rules and ICC arbitration proceedings add a demanding examination and cross-examination register.
Alongside finance and law, Zurich anchors a strong life-sciences, fintech, and insurtech ecosystem, with research at ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich, clinical work at the Universitatsspital Zurich, and the blockchain and insurtech community of Zug's Crypto Valley. Congresses fill the Kongresshaus Zurich, Messe Zurich, and The Circle at Zurich Airport, so pharmaceutical, regulatory, and technology interpreting all run alongside the dominant financial sector.
BeTranslated tailors each Zurich engagement to its industry and format, from booth teams for shareholder meetings and congresses at Messe Zurich and The Circle to a whisper interpreter for a confidential private banking review near Paradeplatz.
We meet participants traveling in from Basel, Zug, Geneva, London, or New York, and we run remote simultaneous, video remote, and telephone interpreting on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Webex for earnings calls, investor days, and cross-border negotiations.
Our network covers German, Swiss German, English, French, Italian, Mandarin, and Russian as core pairs, with deep familiarity with Swiss financial regulation, the informed-consent and Swissmedic vocabulary of clinical-trial work, and Handelsgericht commercial procedure, and we field court-certified and sworn interpreters for Zurich courts, notaries, and Swiss Rules arbitration where a matter calls for it.
