  • Description: Operating risks in Switzerland are low and expected to remain so, although the country's interconnected position with the rest of the euro area means it will not be able to avoid the fallout either from the recession in 2012, or in a worst-case scenario, the break-up of the currency union. The threat from terrorism is low, although Switzerland's international profile exposes it to some residual risk. Despite the increased polarisation of Swiss politics, consensus politics and stability will remain the norm. The importance of the financial sector makes Switzerland vulnerable to changes in the sector, particularly those forced on it externally. The tax system is expected to see some reforms. The labour market is robust, though wages are high. Infrastructure is high quality.
