Narrow Banking in Switzerland: Study and Project Introduction
Narrow banking offers a secure model where client deposits are held safely without risky lending or other traditional banking practices. It is not a new idea, but for Switzerland, with its economically important banking sector, it would be a novel business model.
Hochschule Luzern (HSLU) conducted a market study via guided interviews to determine the Serviceable and Addressable Market (SAM) in Switzerland. Professor Birrer, responsible for the study, will present the results.
In a second part, a "Swiss Narrow Bank" project team currently looking for funding, is presenting a possible implementation in Switzerland and is explaining advantages of a potential narrow bank:
Yield: Higher yield than any current account, with low payment costs
Safety: Safer than any other bank
Innovation: Better than any stablecoin or deposit token, making Switzerland web3-ready
The event is targeted at the study participants and potential professional and institutional investors for a Swiss narrow bank (e.g. pension funds, asset managers, venture funds etc.).
