Annual growth of real Swiss gross domestic product (GDP) with forecast data(2) As of June 2025

Notes: (1) Swiss National Bank (2) SECO

  • Moderate inflation prospects: After the Inflation in Switzerland has sharply increased in 2022 to 2.8%, the inflation rate so far in 2025 (0.2%) is well below the target level of 2%. According to current forecasts, it will gradually reincrease to 0.7% in 2027.
  • Stable economic outlook: GDP growth is expected to minimally change in 2025 (1.3%) compared to 2023 and 2024. The outlook for 2026 is similar at 1.2%.
  • · Challenging sentiment: Consumer sentiment is still negative in July 2025 (32.8). This indicates a continuing high level of uncertainty on the consumer side.
  • · Consequences from the newly imposed tariffs on Switzerland announced by the US administration on 31 July 2025 and in effect since 7 August 2025 are unknown and not considered in the shown forecast data.
