Switzerland: Financial Sector Assessment Program-Technical Note on Financial Safety Net and Crisis Management Arrangements

International Monetary Fund

No 2025/297, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: A strong legal framework and a well-coordinated financial safety net are of critical importance for the stability of the Swiss financial system. The Swiss National Bank (SNB), the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA), and the Federal Department of Finance (FDF) play vital roles in overseeing monetary policy, supervising financial markets, and implementing financial stability policies and measures. Their efforts for a coordinated approach to preventing and containing future crises need to be stepped up and be backed by a stronger legal framework.
