Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Swiss architects' association can claim name protection for the abbreviation 'BSA'.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. In Switzerland the abbreviation is understood as referring to the association and can be protected as a name.
Extrahierte Begründung
A well-known legal entity may enjoy protection for a short designation if the public understands it as its name; the association's longstanding reputation made 'BSA' a name in that sense.
