The latest events (more pictures on pages 4/5) Dear members and friends 2020 started with a boom and had a strongly positive outlook. 20/20 vision is the perfect vision, after all! But as we all know, the year turned out differently. The Swiss-American business relationship had a roaring start. After Q4, 2019, the first quarter of 2020 again saw the US market #1 for Swiss exports, ahead of the German market! Exports to the US grew CHF 974 mio, four times the growth to the EU, while exports to the BRIC countries posted a negative growth of CHF 470 mio. Again, the exports to the USA proved to be the locomotive of the Swiss export industry. As we all know, Q2 Lugano, Annual Dinner, September 17: Franco Polloni Zurich, September 29: J. Erik Fyrwald, saw exports to the US crashing down 22% (EFG Bank / former Ticino Chapter Board Chairman), CEO, Syngenta Group and Board due to the Covid crisis in general and logistics Silvio Napoli (Schindler Holding / Swiss Amcham Member Swiss Amcham [MS] problems as a specific issue. But in the last Chairman), Demis Stucki (EFG Bank / Ticino Chapter months, progress came much faster than Board Chairman) expected and in August, the US market was again the top export market for Switzerland.

  • Around 65% of All Promotions Given in Switzerland Go To
    Press release, 28 August 2019 Study available Advance & HSG Gender Intelligence Report 2019 online advance-hsg- Around 65% of all promotions report.ch given in Switzerland go to men Companies with a high degree of gender diversity at every level of seniority are more success- ful. However, companies face challenges when integrating this approach into their strategy and implementing it in practice. Only a few have achieved substantial progress to date. These are the findings of the Advance & HSG Gender Intelligence Report 2019, published today, for which raw data relating to 263,000 employees have been analyzed. Although companies are hiring increas- ing numbers of women, this growing potential is not being used when it comes to promotions. Companies based in Switzerland are hiring increasing numbers of women, at every level. In turn, this builds up a pipeline of highly qualified, highly talented female employees. Women and men also leave their jobs at the same rate, showing that companies’ cultures are becoming more appealing to women looking to develop their careers. However, this growing potential is not being used systematically enough across every level in the corporate hierarchy. While there are equal numbers of men and women in non-managerial positions, the proportion of women in middle-management slumps to 23%, sinking even further to 18% for the top management levels. Women are particularly losing out in terms of internal promotions with around 65% of all promotions going to men. The study believes that the key to achieving greater gender diversity up to the very top of the corporate ladder lies in transparent promotion processes: Unconscious bias should have as little influence as possible.
