Reporting institutions
The reporting obligation applies to banks contained in the reporting population of the survey on locational banking statistics which are either Swiss-controlled or whose foreign parent company has no banking licence (e.g. holding companies or insurance groups). Liechtenstein banks are treated in the same way as Swiss-controlled banks. Subsidiaries and branches of Liechtenstein banks domiciled in Switzerland have no reporting obligation as they are consolidated by the parent company.
The reporting institutions are invited by the National Bank to participate in the survey.
