Roth - Independent Swiss franc an important asset

SWITZERLAND - Swiss National Bank President Jean-Pierre Roth said Tuesday that an independent Swiss franc is an important asset for Switzerland's financial sector.

Roth regards the existence of an independent Swiss currency as an important asset for Switzerland in general
