So much for solid Swiss banking!!! The SNB blew about 20b in the first half of last year in a futile effort to keep the Franc down. As seems to be usual now in these cases the government only reacted after the money was gone :(

The good news though was that their toxic asset fund actually made a profit of 2.6b. The fund consists mainly of US sub prime lending. So lets hope it's a good omen for NAMA :p
