Switzerland - Excellence in Banking

Compared to its economic importance and share of world trade, Switzerland has a uniquely large banking and financial sector. The country, with its population of six million plus, is one of the leaders among the world's financial centres after New York, Tokyo and London.

Switzerland's banking system also scores extremely well on security and efficiency. Swiss banks operate with the highest equity ratios of all, and a value added margin that is the envy not only of the banking community.

So it is not by chance that Swiss banking appeals to analysts and investors alike. Major Swiss banks consistently receive high marks for soundness from the main credit rating agencies. And a large portion of all internationally managed private assets is entrusted to Swiss banks.

But universal confidence cannot be taken for granted; it must be won anew every day. In all the world's financial centres, Swiss bankers are working to anticipate their clients' need and, naturally enough, keep a step ahead of their rivals.

This will not change for as long as can be foreseen. For the success of Switzerland's banks has been achieved not by chance but as the result of five solid attainments:

• Reliability
• Efficiency
• Legal security
• Privacy
• Professionalism
