USD/CHF
The Swiss Franc, also referred to as the Swissie, is considered a safe haven currency. At times of risk aversion, the Swissie would see inflows at the expense of the U.S Dollar. Its safe haven status comes as a result of Switzerland's neutral status in conflict. The Swissie is also traditionally the funding currency in carry trades due to low to negative interest rates. The Swissie is the 5th most traded currency and is also a reserve currency. The USD/CHF Pairing is the equal 5th most liquid pairing, accounting for 5% of total transactions.
