Your Platform for Strategic Economic and Financial Insights

The Swiss Forum for Economic Dialogues (SFED), established in 2024 and headquartered in Zurich, is a premier platform for exclusive roundtable discussions on pressing economic and financial topics. As an apolitical and independent structure. SFED offers an unparalleled opportunity for board members, banking executives, and industrial leaders to engage in strategic dialogue and thought leadership.

Our Mission

• Create an exclusive exchange platform in Zurich, Lugano and Geneva. Discussions take place in a hotel on a quarterly basis.

• Publish a Swiss Asset Allocation Consensus, unique in its kind, based on the views of member CIOs.
