What are stocks? How are they traded on stock exchanges? Are we heading toward a cashless future? The Swiss Finance Museum has the answers. The permanent exhibition displays stocks from legendary companies from the early modern period through industrialisation to the present day. Find out about the significance of raising capital through stocks for railway construction and the textile industry, for example.
Interactive multimedia installations also allow you to discover stock exchange trading, the capital market, financial instruments, payment transactions and technical products that demonstrate consistently unparalleled innovative power of the financial industry. Our changing special exhibitions highlight selected aspects of the financial centre.
