Hello, I have a banking and finance degree in Switzerland. My thesis largely focused on the macroeconomic model of Switzerland. While the banking sector is large in Switzerland, much of the swiss economy focuses on exports. Especially in pharmaceuticals, engineering services, and the like. However, let me give you a rundown of the "failing" swiss economic model. Switzerland has, for a long time, sustained their growth, with their GDP growth rate only falling twice since 2008. However, they have kept unemployment below 5% since 2008, and inflation below 2% until 2020, and has been decreasing since. They have been, quite frankly, a statement of stability. This video largely aims to capitalize on a common stereotype that people associate with Switzerland, which is that they are sneaky, and its where rich people go to hide their money. To the creator, your video, quite frankly, is spreading false information, encourages biases, and should be taken down. To everyone else, this is your reminder to not believe random people on the internet. Please educate yourself from trusted professionals, and economists if you're interested in these concepts.

hard to believe a country like swisse can have higher gdps per capita than the united states and better wages based on their industries. it just feels obnoxious to say their economic model will survive other 200 years without being surpassed and their currency lose tons of value. I men how can a country who sells chocolates and watches makes more and pays better than a country who owns microsoft and cocacola? Most people on minimum wage or even better low wages in switzerlabnd like french say they cant live a decent life there and I bet immigration will end very soon in those countries. Even the commodities they have like the gold they have stashed wont make them grow. We are entering the century where fixed dollar assets will lose most of its value. especially with 75% of the money being digital and central banks talking about digital currencies. Even germany will surpass Suisse for their industrial prowess despite being more than undervalued right now based european union currency.

And yes, the US has bigger and more influential companies. But the US has 340 mil people and Switzerland has 8.7 mil. Switzerland obviously cannot compete in absolute terms but this changes quickly when you look at things per capita.
Some economists have projected that parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies. Essentially the world economy is considered to be in recession if economic growth falls behind population growth.

@@codelessunlimited7701 Wrong. Many of Swiss products are high value added goods. Pharmaceutical products cannot be easily shifted fo poor countries because poor countries don't have the technology as well as the expertise to produce pharmaceutical products. The same thing for machinery. Why do you think China imports so much machinery from rich countries? Swiss watches are 90% built in Switzerland because Swiss watches are high end products. Nestle biggest factory is still in Vevey, Switzerland. So you have all your facts wrong. Also the Swiss are also very good in the Tech Sector, Insurabce, Professional Services, Engineering, Tourism, etc. These are not jobs that can be transferred to another country. As far as the US is concerned, the problem with the US is they built low quality and low cost cars that can easily be produced elsewhere. Eventhough Germany has high wages, their car company still produced the majority of their cars in Germany which is why they are still the 3rd largest exporter in the world despite their strong currency and high wages. The US also has a ridiculous amount of labor laws & business regulations unlike Germany & Japan or even Switzerland. Why would any business want to invest in an anti business country? If they have the money, it is much better to just invest elsewhere.

So Mr Secrets, it's not a secret (or so I thought) that the Chinese simply focused on what they could do better, a basic principle in economics. Likewise, as time goes and things change, Europeans will lose machinery market to an unpredictable extent, an extent that the collective west is always pushing to rise. It may be a secret for you that both the Chinese and Indians are already capable of space travel.

As good as your products may be, it's no match for Asian products. I'm sure Mercedes-Benz are more comfortable than Asian cars, but their maintenance is troublesome. A regular Asian car does its job, costs far less in both sale price and maintenance. A Rolex is strictly to show off. So, yeah, Europeans do need to keep customers brainwashed.

The Swiss banking sector is much smaller than people believe. It only makes up a small percentage of GDP, even compared with the UK. There are other sectors that generate more wealth for Switzerland: Commodities Trade, Pharmaceuticals, tech industry, etc. You also should not forget that Switzerland simply just has enormous wealth that serves as a stabilizer. Despite the banks going downhill for 15 years, the GDP and private wealth only went up.

I think the number of banks went down from almost 400 to 250 but not through bankruptcy and they were tiny old private banks. the sector shrank slowly but overall it had no impact on wealth in Switzerland. Incomes went up, debt went down. Swiss banks are wealth managers and therefore there business was and is mainly commissions. By balance sheet Credit Suisse was not a large bank. In fact while SVB was the 16th largest bank in the US, Credit Suisse was only the 17th largest in Europe. From what I have heard and read, UBS - which had been the largest wealth manager before this acquisition - will likely spin off Credit Suisse Bank in Switzerland, shut down investment banking in the US and UK and absorb wealth management in Asia. Whether it’s too big to save is questionable. The SNB balance sheet was up to twice that of Credit Suisse and Switzerland has very little public debt.

I must always laugh when I check out those videos about Switzerland. They just have no clue about the strengths of this country. Sure, it's better to have a strong banking system and I admit that the size of UBS vs. the Swiss GDP has become worrysome since the taking over of Credit Suisse. Anyway, Switzerland leads the world for the 12th year in a raw according to the Global Innovation Index, far ahead of the US. It's 7th or 8th in the world for many years in new brevets, before large countries such as UK and Italy. In addition, it's a very well managed country with ca. 30% debt ratio to GDP, the lowest of western economies. This year the state budget will be very close to be balanced. The political system is very stable with no such anger from the population as we see in a lot of developed countries. There was no quantative easing after 2007-8 financial crisis. We had some quantitative easing to support businesses during the pandemic, but there was a tightening since and it came back to normal trend, so there is a lot less inflation and inflation pressure than most developed countries. So, there is one major reason to put your money in a bank in Switzerland (however maybe not UBS) : the Swiss franc will continue to raise vs. other main currency. Euro is at a historical low, USD are close to that point and will continue to fall due to their public debt and high inflation. I prefer to have my spared money in Swiss francs. I think I will be long dead before Switzerland collapse called by many youtube amateurs will take place.

What a bunch of croc. Sitzerland has the best universities in all of continental Europe. It is consistantly ranked as the most competitive country in the world, has one of the highest GDPs on the planet, one of the strongest currencies in the world, its currecy continues to strenghen against the dollar (since 1971 over 500%!!), aganst the Euro, the GBP and the Yen. Notice a pattern? Switzerland is the only country on the planet with a true, direct democracy where the people actually have a say in their destiny, has the second highest life expectency on the planet, the highest prodution of patents per capita and produces more than TWICE the patents per capita than the second ranked country Sweden per year. Just think about that for a second. More than TWICE as many patents per capita per year as the number two nation in the world! Patents are one of the key drivers of GDP! You say how unbelievably important banking is to the Swiss "economic model", which effectively demonstrates how little you understand about that country. The whole financial sector in Switzerland is approx 10% of GDP. However, the Swiss include the huge Insurance business in that 10%. If you delve a bit deeper into Swiss economic statistics, you discover that the actual banking industry is only approx. 5% of Swiss GDP. However, in your video, you use that small 5% sliver to predict the future demise of the "Swiss economic model" and its wealth. Big mistake. I have bad news for you: the Swiss economic model is just fine, thank you. Its prospects are fabulous and it still is - and will continue to be - vastly more successful than any EU or OECD country. Most EU and OECD countries (including the US of A) will continue to fall further behind Switzerland over the next decades, while Switzerland will continue to propser and increase the well-being for its citizens. An example of an actually failed state amongst the G7 and in the EU - just for good measure, you ask? Italy has produced a total combined GDP growth from 2005 to 2021 for its citizens of how much?? Yup:. a big, fat ZERO. ZILCH. NOTHING. 16 years of solid failure and stagnation. Loss of wealth. No progress. No future. No economic model to speak of. Just all encompassing, national, economic failure. Now THER'Es a country your titel would actually apply to since decades! Italy's failure also affects way more people as well. Can we expect a video on the massive failed states of the EU and the OECD anytime soon, or is your focus an bogus stories on the "falling apart" of the Swiss economic model just so time and resource consuming? 😂😂 Or perhaps your're being paid for nonsensical, politically manipulating videos to distract from the actual national failures? BTW: How much has Switzerland's GDP grown during that same period as Italy? Yup: 53%. Now suddenly, Italy has had two years of growth. Why? Because it has received 257 BILLION!! Euros in political ransom from the European money printing presses (for not leaving the Euro) to "invest in the green future". Haha. 🤣😂 If you take that princly sum of printed political ransom out of the GDP calculation, Italy still has ZERO growth, while Switzerland consistantly produces actual, real growth and prosperity decade over decade.

The Swiss people are very smart, educated, elegant and hard working. I began working with Swissair in 1987, and learned how to do things right. Overall, I term Switzerland, "A culture of quality". With that being said, not everything by any measure is perfect. Swissair went out of business in 2003 after 71 years of what many argue was the world's best airline. Why? EU consolidation with the introduction of the Euro into neighboring countries, excessive debt and overreach by its executives to maintain and expand market share. The culture of quality remains but I am seriously concerned what will happen if Europe falls apart due to lack of energy, destabilization, serious harmful influences by the World Economic Forum, the EU and US, which certainly have not helped Switzerland in the least. To me, should Central Bank Digital currencies be forced upon Western Civilization, I believe firmly that freedom will be erased, and all of Western society slowly crumble into chaos. People are not going to allow governments, meant to serve them, force them into virtual, digital slavery!

I think there are some mistakes in this video. 1. claim: 1:09 Poor mini regions constantly fighting with each other. response: There was some minor fighting, but overal Switzerland had been a rather peaceful place for around 300 years How to verify: You can look in wikipedia for wars involving Switzerland and there will be barely anything between mid 15 hundreds and Napoleon. 2. claim: 2:08 Banking Secrecy Response: Banking Secrecy was established in 1934, after germany started confiscating jewish property. This can not explain why the Swiss banking sector would have been successful in the 19th century, far before that. How to verify: "Banking in Switzerland" wikipedia 3. claim: 8:22 If the megabank would collapse it would take the entire country along with it response: The financial sector represents 9 to 10% of the Swiss economy, this includes both banks and insurance companies. This new mega bank combining CS and UBS is around half of that. Loosing 5% of the economy is bad, but not taking the entire country down and likely not all the business will vanish, but rather transition to other banks. source: official swiss goverment page title "Banks and insurance companies"
Our economy is fine thank you. Our economy is not based on banks alone, we have plenty of other things we produce and do. The State banks here are very good and stable. I have my money in one of them. Just because of what happened with Credit Suisse doesn’t mean our country will suddenly fail. There is more to our country than just banks.

Okay, I thought this video was about why the Swiss economy was in bad shape. In reality, this video only talks about the banking sector which is not significantly larger than in other countries. It is mainly the export industries (pharmaceutical industry, chemical industry, microtechnology, industrial electricity, industrial technology, watchmaking, etc.) that make money in Switzerland. The most powerful companies in the country are not companies that have relocated to Switzerland for tax purposes but companies that were created by Swiss people from the start (Nestlé, Novartis, Roche, ABB, MSC, etc.) and the success of these industrial companies is not linked to the success of the financial sector. Moreover, Switzerland remains one of the most important commodity trading centres in the world despite the collapse of Credit Suisse, which means that the collapse of the banking sector does not mean the collapse of the financial sector. And in particular, the collapse of the banking sector does not mean the collapse of such a diversified economy
The ingenious way in which Switzerland handled the Credit Suisse crisis has increased the confidence of many investors. No comparison with other countries, which tend to act helplessly. It made it possible to carry out a strategically sensible merger that would not have been possible under normal circumstances. UBS will become one of the 10 largest banks in the world. The other banking centres are suffering from indebted states and weak currencies. An investment in Swiss francs brings a return of 10% if only the currency gains are taken into account.

Not really, nowadays the financial sector makes less than 10% of GDP, and that includes the massive insurance sector which is massive both domestically and internationally. Plus UBS and CS are well known as they are the international banks, but until their "fusion", they were eclipsed by Raiffeisen, a domestic cooperative banks, and had been losing the domestic market to that and many other domestic banks ever since 2008. Also prior to banking Switzerland's economy has been grounded in high added value industries tied to innovation, of which watchmaking was one of the precursors, along with a globalized textile industry as early as the XVIIIth century.

Ok so your argument is that: 1. Swiss banking transparency is a problem (for whom exactly?) and, 2. One bank crashing (among how many that melted down in the rest of the world) is significant how? Considering Switzerland has one of the lowest and controlled levels of inflation, I think they should be looked at as a model to follow. You may want to base your research and analysis beyond grade school level narrative.
What goes under the radar is that swiss military industry is blowing up, they made 3 times more money than last year which compensates some of the banking losses and it benefits somewhat Switzerland's government that CS fell down because UBS' biggest shareholder is the Swiss National Bank and with UBS acquiring CS, the SNB now also controls CS

This is based on the wrong premise that the Swiss economy depends on the banking system/secrecy and all that. The economic strenght of the Swiss is not based on its banking system. More than 70 % of Switzerland's GDP is produced by SMEs. High quality services and small scale industrial products marketed around the world are the backbone.This is made possible by high quality vocational training, which means we don't need a high academic quote to be competitive (on the contrary, highly academised countries seem to be struggling a lot more), and high average salaries attracting skilled workforce and leading to a strong internal purchase power. A good part of the remaining 30 % is carried by large scale industry (pharma and tech). This system really is in danger though, but for completely different reasons than this video states. There is one chief reason imo why the Swiss economic system will be in trouble soon (and why all western economic systems are in trouble at that). It's called Neoliberalism. Policies in Switzerland increasingly put large corporation (who pay taxes underproportionally, as they are taxed at a flat rate) at an advantage compared to SMEs, while at the same time weakening labour rights. This means less competition and thus less innovation. Lower wages and thus a less qualified workers. Lower tax income and thus less social security, money for the educational system, money for infrastructure etc. All factors with a negative impact on the economy. To offset this, the state increasingly lowers pensions and taxes income higher, which makes those who have the least pay most (proportionally speaking), which in turn will lead to increasing social unrest, which often helps extreme political parties who offer simple - but nonsensical - solutions. After WW2 there was a tendency towards social democracy or at least social market around the democratic world, even in the USA. The Marshall Plan, the New Deal, the spread of social market economy from Germany to many countries of Europe including Switzerland were the recipe to success. The foundation of Switzerland's and the collective west's success was the happy medium between socialism and a barrierless free market society. I think we should take a step back towards that, especially now that democracy is again challenged by fascist empires and internal stability is desperately needed.

Actually, the banking industry only accounts for approx. 5% of the Swiss GDP. The other 5% of "financial products and services ' are in fact the entire, huge insurance products and services, which in their own right are world class as well.
In the meantime, the US Congress is playing roulette with the US Debt Ceiling and putting the global banking system and world’s economy in jeopardy. Just recognizing the elephant in the room.
Banks count only for about 5% of the Swiss GDP. Banks are not Switzerland's Business Model.
No wonder that Switzerland has become so rich: it made business, while the other countries all around made war; reinvests (cleverly) its profits, instead of spending them on fighting (from which only warmongers really took advantage). The rule of thumb and goal in the dominant socio-economic order being capital accumulation; it is not so astonishing it became prominent as a heaven of peace. Yet, now that the last (and hopefully final) crisis of the capitalism is surging fast; it is not so surprising that the paramount beneficiaries (not solely Switzerland but also even more visibly, Sweden as for European continent) abandon their age old wise approach and join the mortal struggle for the continuation of rather hopeless order which have not only witnessed, but also promoted their ascent and very much wealth.
It has not been that way for centuries… up until mid 1900s Switzerland was the poor house of Europe… huge misconception… ask any old Swiss person about their childhood and they will tell you about hunger and hardship

Switzerland is stronger day by day, other economies are fallen apart. You have to put the money in a place with a stable currency. The US dollar and the British pound are constantly losing value against the Swiss franc. In 1960, one US dollar cost 4.50, now it is o.90. 1 pound cost 11 CHF Now about 1 CHF. The euro has lost a third of its value since its introduction. The dramatic currency collapse will intensify in a time of galloping inflation in these countries. Without intervention by the Swiss National Bank in favour of these currencies, the dollar and the pound would be at 0.10. There is no alternative to Switzerland for any dutiful investor.
Swiss people sleep early , wake up early , and show up to the work early. Such people's economy does not fall apart.
The good fame of Switzerland backs to the middle ages and owes nothing to the banks. Besides, Switzerland neighbors are four of the most important countries of Europe: France, Germany, Italy and last but not least, Austria. The USA would wish have such neighbors.

Being Swiss I want to clarify that Switzerland is doing well. Switzerland did experience an increase in poverty and a decrease in gdp growth, but that was mainly due to covid. Climate change is also having a destructive impact on the economy of regions famous for winter sports, but Switzerland is absolutely not about to collapse. Furthermore the collapse of Credit Suisse, which was a complete embarrassment, did not by any mean signify the end of Swiss banks. Banks work all around the world, even without secrecy and even without anything special. Swiss banks will surely see a decrease in deposits and therefore revenue, but will not collapse. Credit Swiss was one accident, not an undeniable catastrophe. Furthermore Switzerland has international reach, stability and continuous economic development. What makes Switzerland rich is not just banks. We have the second most varied economy in the world, which means that if someone fragment of the economy fails, we have hundreds more. Switzerland is not doing well mostly due to climate change, not to incompetence (which is still very embarrassing and even though I’m a nobody I want to apologise for the mismanagement, especially to the families that saw turmoil being brought in their lives by the collapse of those morons). Take this message as a sign that climate change will always be a greater problem than any episode of mismanagement

The fact that Credit Suisse broke down and got saved is a huge reason why the bank accounts of rich people will stay in Switzerland. Credit Suisse got saved in a single weekend in two days.

Hi, hem, the banking in Switzerland is now around… 8% of the country's GDP, so not really a concern - on the other side, it's industry is flourishing and _very_ resilient as it is mostly composed of small (mainly familial) companies exporting _a lot_ , they also very often are world leaders in their branch (Swiss quality isn't an empty formula). The education system has been polished in each and every bit to improve it, mixing between apprenticeship and higher education and much more than that, a very well thought gateway between the both of them to easily allow a former apprentice to come back to long studies or, at the opposite, some graduated people to completely change their kind of work, it is one of the most efficient package of the kind in the world. Notably, is is also a country where several companies are running without a CEO and even without the whole top of the pyramid and even the pyramid itself, using a longitudinal organization - this is a very uncommon thing you don't find everywhere. So, this video is an external view (and very old romantic style but still very wrong) cliché, nothing more (disclaimer : I'm French, not Swiss).
There's more to Switzerland than banking, and the country is not falling apart.

This video has many precious informations and stunning pictures.- However, the idea that is spread in this and many videos about the banking system in Switzerland is a myth and does not correspond to truth: the most important industries now are pharma, chemical products, machine Industries, watches, commodities trading etc, while the whole finance sector is less than 10 %, the banks about 5.8 % of GDP. However, the banks still impose a great threat as seen with Credit Suisse in case of default.
I don't agree with this video. Banking (without Insurance) is only about 5% of Swiss GDP. While being important, it doesn't make anything fall apart or change any of the other fundamentals.
Switzerland is #1 in Innovation rankings, before USA and before Singapore. Swiss precise manufacturing and high tech industries are highly competitive. Switzerland is 5th largest investor in the USA, that is huge for a small county, creating jobs in the USA. Banking is just one part of CH. US and many international companies are selecting CH as their European headquarter. Switzerland is yet better today as it ever was, while most western countries around are lagging behind in infrastructure. Swiss people have a sense for the practical things in life and are rather realistic. That brings stability and continuous development in a world of instability. Each year, thousands of new immigrants from EU are coming to work in Switzerland. They like a life with prospects, development and freedom.
Switzerland is beautiful, and large banks are typically criminal practices. Oh, and US pressure through power or corrupt business practices has worldwide consequences. Given that job sectors that are low paying in the US are often higher paying in Switzerland, I'm still certainly considering moving there.
