Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the foundation is subject, by analogy, to rules requiring a partial liquidation regulation.
Extrahierter Entscheid
A patronal welfare foundation that grants discretionary benefits and is financed only by the founder is subject by analogy to Art. 53b LPP; its regulation must therefore define the conditions and procedure for partial liquidation in advance.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Court relied on its recent case law change: the former approach under the old Art. 89bis CC could not be maintained after the 1st BVG revision. The statutory text of Art. 53b LPP is clear and requires ex ante regulatory rules.
