CHF/EUR: the SNB versus the ECB

The rate between the Swiss franc (CHF) and the euro (EUR) is one of the most closely watched monetary indicators in Europe. Its dynamics are dictated by the relationship between two central banks : the Swiss National Bank (SNB) and the European Central Bank (ECB).

The CHF enjoys safe-haven status. In times of crisis (geopolitical uncertainty, tensions over eurozone debt, inflation), investors buy the Swiss franc en masse. In parallel, the SNB pursues a rigorous policy to contain imported inflation, tending to accept an appreciation of the CHF against the euro to cushion the cost of imports.

Historical reference points : the 1.20 floor set by the SNB in 2011, its abrupt abandonment in January 2015 (the "Francogeddon"), then the euro's lasting fall below parity from 2022 onwards. To plan ahead, see our CHF/EUR forecasts.

Frequently asked questions about CHF/EUR exchange

There is no universally ideal day. The CHF/EUR rate depends on market movements and on the decisions of the SNB and the ECB. The Swiss franc, a safe-haven currency, often appreciates during periods of uncertainty in the eurozone. Monitor the real rate continuously and trigger your exchange at the moment that suits you.

With ibani, you get a personal Swiss (CH) IBAN that you give to your employer. As soon as your salary is paid in CHF, the funds are converted into euros at the real market rate and transferred to your bank account in France, with no hidden fees.

The strength of the Swiss franc is explained by the SNB's monetary policy aimed at limiting imported inflation, by the great stability of the Swiss economy and by its historic status as a safe-haven currency in times of geopolitical crisis.

ibani applies a transparent margin from 0.40% on the real interbank rate, decreasing with amounts. There are no opening, account maintenance or SEPA transfer fees. It's up to 10× cheaper than a traditional bank. See the details on the Rates page.
