Latest data released by the Federal Statistics Office - 21 July 2020

  • Prior CHF 2.80 billion; revised to CHF 2.71 billion
  • Exports +7.9% m/m
  • Prior -0.2%; revised to -0.1%
  • Imports +5.5% m/m
  • Prior +13.0%; revised to +13.9%

The bright spot is that exports and imports both showed a significant improvement but they are still seen below pre-virus levels in February and March. But at least there are signs that trade conditions are moving closer towards normalisation - for now.
