To help ensure that the Swiss franc also plays a strong role in the tokenised economy, SFTI has launched a new working group on CHF-stablecoin business models.
This matters because CHF-pegged stablecoins could become an important enabler for the future strength of the Swiss financial centre across payments, digital assets, interoperability and new market infrastructures.
Co-led by Andra-Maria Maute of SFTI – Swiss Fintech Innovations and Dr. Patric A. Huber of HSLU Hochschule Luzern the working group has a clear ambition: To move beyond abstract debate and develop practical, risk-aware and regulation-compatible models for Switzerland.
Expected outputs include concrete CHF-stablecoin business model proposals, use cases and business case foundations, together with regulatory assessments and feasibility views. As always, we also look forward to roundtables that help structure industry input and support policy dialogue.
Importantly, the work is intended to help create a basis for possible implementation in the second half of 2026.
Thank you to all participating institutions helping to drive this initiative forward:
AllUnity, BCV, HSLU, Hypothekarbank Lenzburg, Lombard Odier, Mastercard, OST Ostschweizer Fachhochschule, Raiffeisen, St. Galler Kantonalbank, Sygnum, Synpulse, Tata Consultancy Services, Valiant, Zürcher Kantonalbank.
We look forward to the discussions, the insights and the results expected towards the end of 2026.
