The impact of U.S. tariffs on Swiss investments

Although U.S. tariffs may hinder growth and exports in the short term, most economic analyses indicate that they will not significantly jeopardize the stability or long-term growth of the Swiss economy. Key reasons for this optimism include Switzerland’s diversified export structure and its strong, globally competitive core industries, some of which are less affected due to exemptions. Making well-informed investment selections can help account for and mitigate risk factors within the portfolio context.

Did you know?

Surprisingly, many Swiss companies have succeeded in dominating on the global market despite the strong Swiss franc— or is it precisely because of it? The strong currency forces companies to set themselves apart early on with an edge in quality and innovation. If they master this step, they often acquire pricing clout that enables stable margins and long-term planning, even in times of crisis.
