Dollar / Franc Live priceWhat is USD/CHF
USD/CHF is the exchange rate between the US dollar and the Swiss franc, nicknamed "Swissy". The franc is one of the world’s premier safe-haven currencies.
Switzerland’s stability means the franc tends to attract money in times of stress, so the pair often moves opposite to global risk appetite.
It reflects the contrast between the US Federal Reserve and the Swiss National Bank, which has a history of acting to keep the franc from getting too strong.
