As the head of Swiss Central Bank T. Jordan said:
Last year we had to intervene aggressively in the foreign exchange market to reduce the strong pressure on the franc exchange rate;
It is important to absorb this pressure to prevent the franc from strengthening too much;
The franc is a safe-haven asset and an indicator of the level of global uncertainty;
Last year, the Swiss economy showed better-than-expected resilience;
At the end of 2020, the country's GDP is likely to have contracted by about 3%;
The outlook for the economy remains uncertain, and the situation is fragile;
Fiscal and monetary policy must remain expansionary.
