SWITZERLAND AS A FINANCIAL CENTER
AT A GLANCE
Switzerland is one of the world’s leading financial centres, whether it be for asset management, the insurance business or as a trading platform for commodities. Due to the high concentration of international and local financial service providers, companies from other industries have access to a sophisticated and liquid capital market, as well as state-of-the-art financial infrastructure. A broad range of services is also offered in the field of project financing and investment consultancy – for the assessment and evaluation of risks or for support during mergers and takeovers.
Zurich Financial Centre
Our financial centre is a mainstay of Zurich’s economy and contributes significantly to its economic value creation. It also plays a pivotal role as an employer, educator, lender, customer, taxpayer and promoter of cultural institutions.
Digitalisation, increasing regulation and the rapid emergence of new client needs and requirements offer extensive opportunities for the Zurich financial centre, but also involve challenges. In this period of historic change, it is crucial to equip the financial centre with favourable framework conditions, and to nurture and further develop the advantages that the Zurich region has to offer.
