SONDAGE D'OPINION SUR LES BANQUES EN SUISSE


LA RÉPUTATION DES BANQUES SE MONTRE RÉSILIENTE

Le climat d’opinion reste relativement stable et positif. Une majorité de
Suisses et de Suissesses est clairement convaincue de l’importance du rôle des
banques pour l’économie et la société.

Selon le sondage bisannuel réalisé par gfs.bern sur mandat de l'Association
suisse des banquiers, la réputation des banques se montre globalement résiliente
et résiste à la crise de Credit Suisse. Sur le principe, les personnes
interrogées sont en grande majorité d’accord avec la réaction des autorités et
considèrent que les mesures prises ont permis d’assurer la stabilité de la place
financière suisse. Néanmoins, elles estiment que le rôle de l’Etat et la
responsabilité de Credit Suisse doivent être examinés et clarifiés. En revanche,
une majorité s’oppose à une réglementation globale de l’économie.

La perception des banques suisses par les citoyens et citoyennes helvétiques au
sujet de la compétitivité et au sentiment de sécurité est stable. Dans leur
esprit, les banques suisses n’ont que légèrement perdu en compétitivité en
comparaison internationale depuis le début de la pandémie Covid-19, notamment
grâce à la stabilité politique et économique de la Suisse. Le sentiment de
sécurité se maintient à un niveau élevé malgré une année 2023 turbulente.

Afin de renforcer la compétitivité, les programmes de formation dans le secteur
bancaire, l’orientation vers la durabilité et la protection de la sphère privée
devraient être développés.

SWITZERLAND, A LONG-TIME GLOBAL LEADER IN CROSS-BORDER WEALTH MANAGEMENT


USD 2,600 BILLION AUM

In the latest edition of the Boston Consulting Group's (BCG) Global Wealth
Report, published in July 2024, Switzerland continues to top the list of
financial centres ranked according to the volume of cross-border assets.
 

With USD 2,600 billion in foreign-owned assets managed in Switzerland,
Switzerland is ahead of Hong Kong (USD 2,400 billion) and Singapore (USD 1,700
billion).

 

Despite temporary concerns about sanctions and asset freezes, and a major bank
merger, Switzerland continues to be a bastion of cross-border wealth, thanks to
its neutrality, stable economy, low inflation and  a highly-developed financial
infrastructure.

EY BANKING BAROMETER 2024


POSITIVE MOOD & CONFIDENCE AMONG SWISS BANKS

The results of the EY Banking Barometer 2024 reflect "an extremely positive mood
among Swiss banks. 96% of banks surveyed expect their operating profit for 2023
to rise – a record figure, up 18 percentage points from last year. They also
forecast growing income for the future, underlining their confidence in their
own ability to generate value. This confidence is remarkable, especially given
the background of a challenging environment of geopolitical tensions, banking
collapses, persistent inflation and a slowing economy".

WORLD DIGITAL COMPETITIVENESS RANKING 2023


SWITZERLAND STILL IN THE TOP 5

The World Digital Competitiveness Ranking 2023, published each year by IMD,
shows that Switzerland remains in fifth place thanks to the quality of its
infrastructure, cutting-edge regulation and the ability of its companies to
transform themselves.
 

The challenges ahead include cybersecurity, the use of Big Data, the
availability of venture capital as well as online citizen participation. The
study underlines in particular the Swiss citizens' rejection of digital identity
in March 2021 and their concerns about transparency.
