What moves the AED/CHF rate
The United Arab Emirates Dirham is mainly influenced by a fixed peg to the US dollar of about 3.6725 dirhams per dollar, maintained by the UAE Central Bank. The Swiss Franc is mainly influenced by Swiss National Bank policy and the franc's reputation as a safe-haven currency. When these forces push the two currencies in different directions, the AED/CHF rate moves; when they move together, the rate tends to stay steadier.
How this rate is calculated
Rates are fetched from Frankfurter, which publishes the European Central Bank's daily reference rates (updated once per working day), and from ExchangeRate-API for currencies the ECB does not cover. All rates are stored against the euro, so the AED/CHF figure is a cross rate: the euro value of CHF divided by the euro value of AED. These are indicative mid-market reference rates and may differ from the rates offered by banks, card issuers and payment providers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert AED to CHF?
Enter an amount in United Arab Emirates Dirham and the converter multiplies it by the latest daily AED/CHF reference rate to show the value in Swiss Franc. To go the other way, CHF to AED, divide by the same rate or use the swap button.
Where does the AED to CHF rate come from?
Rates come from Frankfurter, which republishes daily European Central Bank reference rates, with ExchangeRate-API filling in currencies the ECB does not publish. They are cached in your browser for up to an hour.
Is this the AED to CHF rate my bank will give me?
No. These are mid-market, indicative rates. Banks, card providers and transfer services usually add a margin or fee, so the Swiss Franc you actually receive is typically a little lower.
