Switzerland's trade surplus nearly doubled to 23.7 billion Swiss francs ($28.86B) in the second quarter of 2026, driven by rising overseas goods sales. The balance widened from 13.8 billion francs a year earlier, according to the Swiss National Bank on Tuesday morning. The current account surplus reached its widest point since early 2025, rebounding from tariff pressures imposed by the United States.
