Question juridique clé
Whether the CHF 100,000 pension buy-in made in 2007 was deductible for direct federal tax.
Solution extraite
No deduction was allowed because the capital withdrawal occurred within three years of the buy-in, making the buy-in abusive under Art. 79b(3) LPP.
Motifs extraits
In tax law, Art. 79b(3) LPP concretizes the anti-abuse rule: any capital payment within three years after a buy-in is generally abusive, without needing a separate evasion analysis.
