KOF International Forecasts
The KOF puts a special emphasis on forecasting the international economy. The quarterly publication KOF International Forecasts presents these international forecasts, including data histories, along with various indicators and forecasts related to the Swiss export sectors.
The KOF International Forecasts are sent out each quarter by e-mail in pdf format. A supplementary Excel file provides the forecasts, including data histories, in digital form.
Printed copies, in booklet style, are available on request. The KOF International Forecast can be purchased as an annual subscription.
The KOF International Forecasts present the international economy from a Swiss perspective and are made for, amongst others, Swiss export-oriented firms, Swiss financial market institutes, and public or private institutions in Switzerland with an international focus.

Subdued European economy weighing on Swiss prospects
Assessments of the outlook for the Swiss economy have deteriorated slightly compared with the autumn forecast. KOF is slightly revising downwards its forecasts. It expects real gross domestic product (GDP) adjusted for sporting events to increase by 0.9 per cent in 2024. Sport-adjusted GDP will grow by 1.4 per cent in 2025 and by 1.7 per cent in 2026. The main reason for these downward revisions is the sluggish performance of the international environment – particularly in Germany and France.
