French-speaking Switzerland has experienced significant GDP growth of 49.5% from 2005 to 2024, driven by the chemical-pharmaceutical sector and strong diversification across industries. However, challenges such as an aging population, infrastructure needs, and geopolitical developments loom ahead, impacting future growth. Despite a slowdown in 2023, forecasts for 2024 suggest GDP growth will align closely with the Swiss average, with optimism for recovery in the secondary sector and construction.
