Over the past 35 years, the Swiss Franc (CHF) has been one of the most stable currencies globally, trading within a relatively narrow range against the US Dollar (USD). Historically, the CHF has been considered a safe-haven currency, strengthening during times of global economic uncertainty and financial market stress.
The Swiss Franc reached its strongest levels against the USD in the early 2000s and again during the 2008 financial crisis, when investors sought safety in Swiss assets. The Swiss National Bank (SNB) has occasionally intervened in currency markets to prevent excessive appreciation, most notably in 2011 when it set a floor of 1.20 CHF per EUR and again in 2015 when it removed that floor, causing a sharp appreciation of the franc.
In 2025, the Swiss Franc has maintained its reputation as a stable, safe-haven currency. The combination of Switzerland's strong economy, low inflation, and political stability continues to support the CHF's value. Looking ahead, the franc is likely to remain relatively stable against the USD, with movements primarily driven by global risk sentiment and interest rate differentials between Switzerland and the United States.
