Gross domestic product in the second quarter of 2025: Swiss economy shows weak growth
Bern, 28.08.2025 — In the second quarter of 2025, Switzerland's GDP adjusted for sporting events increased by 0.1%, following growth of 0.7% in the first quarter[1],[2]. After the above-average growth seen in the previous quarter, the anticipated correction has now occurred. Industrial value added and exports declined sharply, whereas the services sector delivered broad-based growth. An updated economic scenario from SECO shows that, as a result of higher US import tariffs, the Swiss economy is likely to grow more slowly than previously expected, particularly in 2026.
