GVI Dollar Outlook


SWITZERLAND

GVI Swiss National Bank Policy Meeting Preview

  • Decision: June 19 at 12:00 GMT.
  • SNB 3mo Swiss libor target: 2.75%
  • Expected Decision: No Change
  • There are concerns that the global economy is slowing. The SNB has indicated that the peak in interest rates has been reached. The rise of the CHF has been a restraint on the economy as well. The Swiss CPI (see below) is well below its target ceiling. The SNB manages the value of the CHF as critical element of monetary poilcy.


  • SWISS NATIONAL BANK Policy Objective: The National Bank equates price stability with a rise in the national consumer price index (CPI) of less than 2% per annum. In so doing, it takes account of the fact that not every price movement is necessarily inflationary. Furthermore, it believes that inflation cannot be measured accurately. Measurement problems arise, for example, when the quality of goods and services improves. Such changes are not properly accounted for in the CPI; as a result, inflation, as measured by the CPI, will be slightly overstated.
