Documented cause
LiechtensteinFin built fintech for 38K. Full European fintech access via EFTA. Swiss banking dominates. No uncovered segment. Dissolved.
Lesson
“Liechtenstein fintech must target the 50,000+ offshore companies registered under Liechtenstein's LVCG law — these international companies have compliance, treasury, and payment needs that Swiss banks don't serve efficiently.”
