Swiss Banking Outlook: moderate economic development, but muted expectations for Swiss banks
Basel, 4 March 2025 – The Swiss Bankers Association (SBA) today published the updated version of the Swiss Banking Outlook, which is considered a relevant indicator of the economic development and the state of the banking sector. The consensus forecast shows a mixed picture: moderately positive economic development, low inflation and a further decline in interest rates are expected in 2025. Aggregate operating profit for the banks will decrease slightly due to a decline in interest-bearing business.
