What moves the EUR/CHF rate

The Euro is mainly influenced by European Central Bank policy, euro-area growth and inflation, and energy prices. 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 EUR/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 EUR/CHF figure is a cross rate: the euro value of CHF divided by the euro value of EUR. 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 EUR to CHF?

Enter an amount in Euro and the converter multiplies it by the latest daily EUR/CHF reference rate to show the value in Swiss Franc. To go the other way, CHF to EUR, divide by the same rate or use the swap button.

Where does the EUR 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 EUR 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.
