Swiss Cantons Ranked by Economy

Dear Moneyguru,

I am looking for a ranking of the cantonal economies of all cantons in Switzerland showing which cantons are financially strongest.

Does a list like this exist and if so, could you refer me to it?

Thank you

Hi there,

For accurate information you should contact the cantonal finance administration offices. You can also contact the Federal Finance Administration: http://www.efv.admin.ch

This article by Swiss newspaper Tagesanzeiger provides some interesting insights into this topic:

Statistics covering certain aspect of cantonal economies are available from the Federal Statistical Office.

Best regards from Moneyguru
