Swiss National Bank (SNB) Historical Time Series

Historical Time Series

In 2007, the Swiss National Bank is celebrating its centenary. It is marking this event by launching a new publication series featuring historical statistical data. This publication includes topics of importance to monetary policy – both now and in the past. Wherever possible, the time series extend back over the past hundred years. The publications also include commentaries on the time series, describing the calculation methods as well as, for some topics, the historical and regulatory background. This helps readers understand and interpret the data, and provides the information required when relating different time series to one another.

Languages, form of publication

The publications in the series will be published at quarterly intervals in the SNB's centennial year and intermittently in the years that follow. They will be available in German, French and English.

Subscriptions

The printed publications can be ordered free of charge from the SNB. Subscribers to the SNB’s Monthly Statistical Bulletin will receive them automatically.
