Services Sector Contribution to GDP in Switzerland (1990-2022)

Switzerland’s services sector consistently expanded its share of GDP, starting from 64.7% in 1990 and gradually increasing over the next three decades. The steady rise, reaching 71% by 2009, underscores Switzerland’s transformation into a global financial and pharmaceutical hub. Following the 2008 financial crisis, the sector continued to grow, achieving a peak of 72.3% in 2016. The high-value industries in finance, banking, and biotechnology sustained this level, with minor fluctuations in the 71-72% range through 2022. The stable contribution during recent years reflects Switzerland's solidified reputation as a services-oriented economy.
