Switzerland and ETF Could Be On the Mend, But More Woes Predicted | Page 2 of 2 | ETF Trends

One economist predicts more reports of losses and more financial turmoil through the end of the second quarter.

The financial sector accounts for 15% of the Swiss gross domestic product (GDP), and it could make or break the overall economy. The financial sector in the ETF is the third heaviest weighting at 22.6%. The top two are healthcare (30.4%) and consumer goods (25.5%).

UBS is the third-largest holding in the fund, as well, with 5.6% of the assets. The other two holdings have a bigger share of the assets: Nestle has 18.3% and Roche Holding has 14.1%.
