reuters.com/markets/rates-bonds/view-swiss-national-bank-hits-franc-with-surprise-rate-cut-2024-03-21/
Quick Glance: Swiss National Bank Surprises with Rate Cut
- The Swiss National Bank cut its main interest rate by 25 basis points to 1.50%, becoming the first major central bank to ease tighter monetary policy aimed at tackling inflation.
- The franc dropped following the decision, boosting the euro to its highest level against the Swiss currency since mid-July last year, with Swiss government bond yields also falling.
- Experts like Karsten Junius and Alexander Koch highlighted the significance of the rate cut due to low inflation rates and the strong franc, with expectations for more rate cuts.
- The decision was widely perceived as a surprise, leading to speculation about further rate cuts in June and September, as inflation forecasts were substantially revised downwards.

Quick Glance: Swiss Lower House Approves Recovery Plan for Pay from Rescued Banks
- Switzerland's lower house of parliament unanimously passed a motion requiring senior management of a major bank to return half of their income from the previous decade if the bank has to be rescued with public funds.
- The motion, still to be debated in the upper house, was adopted a year after Switzerland provided billions of dollars in emergency liquidity for ailing Swiss bank Credit Suisse before it was acquired by UBS.
- According to the motion, top managers of a systemically relevant bank rescued by the government should reimburse 50% of their regular pay and bonuses from the past 10 years.
- The motion, introduced by a politician from the right-wing Swiss People's Party (SVP), specifically mentioned the 2023 Credit Suisse case and the 2008 rescue of UBS during the global financial crisis.
