All benefits (https://www.stelle.admin.ch/stelle/de/home/bundesverwaltung/ihre-vorteile-auf-einen-blick.html)

The Swiss Institute of Comparative Law (SIR) is an independent administrative unit of the Confederation. We access foreign and international law and thus make an important contribution to legal practice and science.
We support judicial and administrative authorities, law firms, notaries and private individuals and conduct our own comparative legal research. Our research topics are oriented towards legal issues that are of particular importance to Switzerland, dealing with the legal challenges of complex societies or a globalized economy.
In this context, our excellent specialist library with its unique variety of foreign legal systems in Switzerland is an invaluable resource. As part of the national library network Swisscovery, it is also broadly and internationally networked.
