What is Sight Deposits?

Sight deposits at the Swiss National Bank are commercial-bank and federal-government balances held overnight at the SNB. Weekly changes are widely interpreted as a real-time proxy for SNB FX-intervention activity.

Why it matters for FX

When the SNB sells CHF to weaken the currency, it credits francs to commercial-bank sight-deposit accounts, so a sharp rise typically signals intervention. This is the single best high-frequency window into SNB activity between quarterly meetings, and it can move EUR/CHF on release.

How to read this page

Watch week-over-week changes rather than the absolute level. Compare with EUR/CHF moves over the same week to corroborate intervention interpretation.

What to watch for

  • Week-over-week change as intervention proxy
  • Coincidence with sharp EUR/CHF moves
  • Domestic vs foreign sight-deposit split
  • Coordination with quarterly SNB meetings
  • Year-over-year trend changes
