Andrea Maechler from the Swiss National Bank (SNB) attended a news-related conference in Bern on Nov 10 Wednesday. At the conference, Andrea Maechler made some notable remarks and announcements regarding the SNB and Swiss Franc. She said that the Swiss franc is rapidly rising and becoming more and more in demand with each passing day, so it is a safe haven for all the investors if they want to invest in something.
Because of Covid 19 pandemic, the markets are seeing huge losses, and with this, the financial unpredictability of every nation varies to its own extent. On Thursday, she mentioned that the Swiss franc is stable, and it is likely that it will stay this way without any fluctuation in its worth. This is a piece of good news shared for all the investors who have invested in the Switzerland and Liechtenstein firms or markets. They are gaining healthy profits daily and will likely to flourish in the comings days too.
“During an interview on an event in Geneva, Andrea Maechler mentioned that the place where all these people were at that time is also the place where Swiss Franc remains high—replying to a question imposed by the reporters about how the swiss franc will move further and where is it going to go? She said she does not know for know where the Swiss franc would go in the near future, but if it’s a hunch that counts, then she has a feeling that it will see a good end of stability and importance altogether.
Andrea Maechler further mentioned that even after the covid crises, which have caused huge unpredictabilities and uncertainties throughout the world market, currencies and stocks, the Swiss franc is a safe haven for everyone right now because of the stability it has kept for the past months. There is still a threat of its gain going back to where it started from, but the situation and the overall conditions through analysis suggest that the Swiss franc will retain its place.
Since May of the last year 2020, this is the first time that the Swiss franc has made any records of gaining the highest level, even leaving the euro behind. This is because of the Swiss National Bank (SNB), which committed to intervening in the markets and businesses and keeping a check on the Swiss franc progress, said Andrea Maechler.
There was seen to be a one-point two percentage point rise in Swiss inflation. This rise protected Switzerland from going into crisis. With the rise in the Swiss Franc value, the adverse effects on the export economy had been protected and reduced to lower levels which are not harmful now. Switzerland is under extreme good luck that things are working out for them on their own.
Andrea Maechler said while talking to a reporter that everyone, including the reporter, had seen the hype there has been created of the Swiss Franc; it is quite fascinating that people from all around the world appreciate its well-deserved victory. If we compare the exchange rate with that of the year 2015, then we can clearly analyze from it that the exchange rate of now, the year 2021, is higher than before. So the appreciation is deserved by the swiss.
We have been monitoring the functions in the economy through the swiss franc, and in the future, we intend to keep doing it too, as we believe it is the reason behind our huge success and stability.

Andrea Maechler said that the Swiss National Bank SNB has met with the least impact on the market, so they are not under any sort of pressure or threat. They bought the investments on foreign currencies. The most advanced and dependable export system that has existed in the world till now is in Switzerland. Even after years, it has not been subjected to any adversities and stood up strong and stable throughout all the uncertainties that occur through the test of time.
In the month of November, the Swiss franc trade was reported to be almost 0.913 USD. This was all in the midst of the Covid pandemic and inflation crises. Due to the Franc firm belief and never giving up enthusiasm, the investors stuck through with them, and that belief got them the rise they were waiting for on Wednesday.
