CHF to USD 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent franc → dollar forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Swiss franc to US dollar performance and trends.

 

Recent developments in the currency market indicate a complex landscape for the CHF to USD exchange rate. The US dollar (USD) has been under pressure due to significant domestic factors, notably the looming government shutdown and labor market concerns, which have dampened investor sentiment. Analysts note that the uncertainty surrounding U.S. employment data, particularly with the latest jobless claims and payroll figures postponed, contributes to a generally bearish outlook on the USD. The expectation is that a robust performance in the upcoming ISM services PMI could provide some support, yet the prevailing environment remains cautious.

Conversely, the Swiss franc (CHF) is influenced by the Swiss National Bank's (SNB) recent decisions and external economic pressures. The SNB dramatically increased its foreign currency purchases in Q2 2025, the highest in over three years, following newly imposed U.S. tariffs that significantly impacted Swiss exports. While the SNB has maintained a public stance against currency manipulation, its interventions are viewed as crucial to stabilizing the CHF amidst external pressures.

Additionally, the SNB's decision to cut interest rates amid low inflation adds an interesting dynamic, as it seeks to promote economic stability in a troubling global context. The IMF's recent downgrade of Switzerland's growth forecast highlights ongoing risks, further complicating the outlook for the CHF as external threats like trade tensions persist.

Current trading data shows the CHF to USD is at 7-day highs around 1.2573, slightly above its three-month average of 1.2499, indicating a stable yet cautious trading range. This performance suggests some resilience in the CHF, given the backdrop of recent pressure on the USD and external economic challenges for the Swiss economy. Analysts will continue to monitor these developments closely, as shifts in economic indicators and geopolitical tensions could significantly alter the current trajectory of the CHF to USD exchange rate.
