Prenuptial agreements are often mistakenly considered unromantic. In a guest column for the Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ), Josef Alkatout shows how agreements between spouses foster transparency, stability, and mutual trust.
From clearly defining ownership of property and real estate, to loan agreements to mutually agreed-upon arrangements for day-to-day responsibilities or the consequences of divorce: written agreements prevent misunderstandings, protect assets, and ensure family harmony. Creating clarity in this context does not mean planning for the end of a marriage, but rather laying a reliable foundation for life together.
