I am interested in learning more about the Swiss Pfandbrief system. Are Pfandbriefe bonds? Can private investors use Pfandbriefe? How can I invest in them? Is it worth it?

A Swiss Pfandbrief is a covered bond that is secured by Swiss real estate as collateral. It yields interest at a fixed rate over a fixed term.

Swiss Pfandbriefe are issued by one of two issuers:

  • Pfandbriefzentrale der schweizerischen Kantonalbanken AG
  • Pfandbriefbank schweizerischer Hypothekarinstitute AG

They are sold and traded on the SIX stock exchange, which means you can buy them using any Swiss stock broker. You can find examples of the ISINs and the coupons of current Pfandbried issues here:
