Mortgages

Outstanding mortgages in Switzerland currently amount to some CHF 1,200 billion, and banks account for 95% of this figure. The banks in Switzerland thus play a decisive role in helping people to realise the dream of owning their own home, supporting them with attractive mortgage offers when they want to buy, build or renovate a property.

For many Swiss people, owning a home is central to their retirement planning. Banks therefore contribute not only to wealth accumulation in Switzerland, but also to the stability of the housing market and the strength of the regional economy.
