For the first time since 2019, the Confederation achieved an almost balanced financial result, with a financing deficit of CHF 80 million. Both receipts (+5.8%) and expenditure (+4%) rose sharply year on year. In the ordinary budget, the Confederation recorded a financing surplus of around CHF 800 million. The Federal Council was informed of this provisional result during its meeting on 12 February 2025. At the same time, it launched work on the next budget. Thanks to temporarily higher profit tax receipts, no additional adjustment measures are expected to be necessary for the 2026 budget. However, without relief package 27, subsequent years would again see deficits running into the billions.
