Financial distress among Swiss companies has risen to a four-year high of 6.8% but remains significantly below the European average of 9.2%. Key sectors affected include automotive, specialised retail, and energy & utilities amid broader European pressures such as weaker demand, supply-chain disruption, and a strong Swiss franc impacting exporters.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Swiss exporters face a squeeze from a strong franc and softer global demand, pressuring margins now more than before. You need to review pricing and supply chain strategies this quarter to shield your business from rising financial risks.
