About Trade-Weighted Index (NEER) (CHF)

The trade-weighted index (TWI) for Switzerland measures the chf's value against a basket of currencies weighted by bilateral trade volumes. It gives a broader read of currency strength than any single bilateral rate.

Why FX traders watch it

The Swiss National Bank monitors the TWI when assessing imported inflation and the competitiveness of Switzerland's export sector. A strong TWI can reduce import inflation but also reduce export competitiveness.

How to interpret the data

A rising TWI means the chf is strengthening in trade-weighted terms, reducing import costs but potentially weighing on export growth. The Swiss National Bank may reference TWI levels in communications about currency policy.
