Swiss Franc - Summary

The Swiss franc weakened to 0.83 per USD as investors favored the greenback amid expectations that the Federal Reserve will maintain a tighter policy stance, while the Swiss National Bank is widely expected to keep rates unchanged. Although weaker-than-expected US jobs data reduced expectations of a Fed hike this month, markets still anticipate another increase in December and at least one more in early 2027. Meanwhile, economists expect the SNB to keep its policy rate at 0% over the coming years, despite markets pricing in up to three hikes next year. Swiss inflation rose to 1.0% in September, driven by higher energy costs and reaching the midpoint of the SNB’s target range. However, safe-haven demand for the franc, amid higher oil prices and French fiscal concerns, is expected to limit imported inflation and keep core inflation subdued. The franc also benefits from Switzerland’s current-account and budget surpluses, a credible central bank, and a highly liquid currency market.

Swiss Franc Strengthens on Debt Concerns
The Swiss franc rose to 0.82 per USD, recovering from a 16-month low, as concerns over debt affordability in its European peers raised demand for save-haven assets. Elevated energy prices continue to underpin concerns over government's debt and expenditures, supporting the Swiss franc as investors seek shelter in times of increased volatility. Providing an offsetting pressure, the franc’s appeal as a funding currency for carry trades has increased. Carry trades involve investors borrowing in a low-yielding currency to fund the purchase of a currency with higher yields, putting downward pressure on the currency. Contrasting with other central banks, the Swiss National Bank left its key rate unchanged at 0% at its September meeting, leaving borrowing costs at the world’s lowest level for more than a year while scaling back its threat of currency intervention.
