The currency used in Switzerland is the Swiss franc
Swiss franc is the legal tender of Switzerland and Lichtenstein, which is issued by the Central Bank of Switzerland. The Swiss franc is a hard currency. Most of Switzerland's neighbors use the euro. There are also shops and institutions in Switzerland. Since January 15, 2015, the Swiss Franc has been decoupled from the euro. Swiss francs 200, 50, 20 and 10 have been issued. Currency code: CHF
according to the law of coinage, which came into effect on May 7, 1850, Switzerland adopted the silver standard system. The name of the currency was defined as franc, which belongs to the unlimited legal compensation currency. 1 Franc = 100 births (centime or German Rappen), and its value was equal to that of French franc. Previously, around 1860, only French gold coins were allowed to circulate
On December 23, 1865, Switzerland, France, Belgium and Italy formed the Latin monetary union, which stipulated that gold and silver coins could be freely circulated in each member country, with unlimited legal compensation and fixed official exchange rates among the currencies of each member country As a result, there are several currencies in circulation in Switzerland at the same time. After the dissolution of the alliance in 1925, the Swiss government banned the circulation of foreign coins, and the Swiss Franc became the only currency in circulation When the Swiss Franc was established as the national currency, although the Federation was the only issuer of the franc, before 1910, private banks were allowed to issue their own banknotes. The National Bank of Switzerland was established in 1907 and has been the only bank note and coin issuing institution since 1910
extended data:
since March 2010, the Swiss central bank has taken many measures to ease the rise of the Swiss franc, but with little effect. Since July 2011, the Swiss Franc has reached new highs against the euro and the US dollar. On August 3, the Swiss central bank announced emergency measures to intervene in the rise of the franc by cutting interest rates. The market did not immediately respond, the Swiss central bank immediately announced on the 10th to expand the scope of liquidity operations
influenced by the speculation that the Swiss central bank will take more radical measures to curb the appreciation of its currency, the exchange rate of the Swiss franc against the euro and the US dollar once fell, even reaching the highest level against the euro since the establishment of the euro zone in 1999
On the 17th, the expected Swiss cabinet meeting issued an action plan to deal with the rapid appreciation of the Swiss franc, deciding to rece the burden of enterprises through subsidies, tax cuts and other measures, so as to enhance the market competitiveness and anti risk ability of enterprises to tide over the difficulties. Due to the lack of expected severe measures in this plan, the Swiss Franc immediately recovered and resumed its upward trendalthough the previous intervention measures of the Swiss central bank slowed down the rise of the Swiss Franc to a certain extent, it is difficult to say whether it can reverse the rise of the Swiss Franc under the premise of the slow recovery of the world economy. Unless international financial markets return to stability, investors will still hold the franc even in the face of negative interest rates
in addition, as the expectation of the Federal Reserve to adopt new quantitative easing measures heats up, the trend of US dollar depreciation is obvious, which will also weaken the effect of the Swiss central bank's intervention in the appreciation of the Swiss franc. Of course, in the long run, in order to lower the exchange rate of the Swiss franc, the Swiss central bank may directly intervene in the market and sell the Swiss franc, and its last resort may be to introce a minimum exchange rate or link the Swiss Franc to the euro, so as to pave the way for intervention in the foreign exchange market
the globalized market has created the globalized economy and finance. Switzerland has always refused to join the euro area. It has become a synonym for stability and reliability for a long time. But now it is also suffering from the slowdown of world economic growth, and it is difficult to restrain the decline together. From the perspective of global markets, the game over the exchange rate of the Swiss franc is not over
in 2017, the Swiss government formulated a legal framework for fintech, including digital goods dealers and fast chain technology providers.
