The Swiss franc (CHF) is the official currency of Switzerland and Liechtenstein, known for its strength and stability. It is controlled by the Swiss National Bank. Introduced in 1907, current banknotes are issued in 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, and 1000 denominations, with the 500 franc note discontinued. The Swiss franc is among the most traded currencies worldwide, ranking sixth or seventh. Banknotes are printed in French, Italian, and German due to Switzerland's linguistic diversity and historical ties to the Latin Monetary Union.
