What is a bank loan?
A bank loan is a sum of money granted by a bank or financial institution, which you undertake to repay within a specified period. In exchange for this service, you pay interest at a fixed or variable rate. This type of financing offers immediate financial flexibility, while spreading the cost over time.

Obtaining a bank loan in Switzerland can be a demanding process, as banks apply strict creditworthiness and risk management criteria. Here are the best strategies for maximizing your chances of acceptance on the best possible terms.
Renforcer son Profil Financier
Swiss banks analyze several criteria before granting credit. Here are the most important points to improve:
Avoir des revenus stables et suffisants pour demander un crédit bancaire
- An open-ended contract with more than 6 months’ seniority or a self-employed business with 2-3 years’ solid earnings is preferable.
- Civil servants and employees of large companies are generally better perceived.
- For the self-employed, providing positive balance sheets and solid tax returns is essential.
Have a reasonable level of debt
- Swiss banks recommend a debt ratio of less than 33% (i.e. your monthly expenses, including the requested credit, should not exceed one-third of your income).
- Avoid having several outstanding loans: a credit repurchase can be considered to reduce your monthly payments before applying for a new loan.
Absence of lawsuits or certificates of default
- Request an extract from the debt collection register from thedebt collection office in your canton to check your debt history.
- If you’ve had lawsuits in the past, make sure they’ve been settled.
📌 Tip: Before applying, try to pay off some of your debts to show good financial management.
Improve Your Credit Score
Banks consult your credit rating with the ZEK (Zentralstelle für Kreditinformation) to assess your level of risk. A good bank score can help you obtain credit at a lower interest rate.
Avoid multiple credit applications
- Every credit application registered with ZEK can have an impact on your score.
- Using a credit broker such as MultiCredit or Credaris allows you to compare offers without affecting your credit rating.
Manage your current credit
- Avoid late payments on your loans, credit cards or leases.
- A recurring bank overdraft can be seen as a sign of financial difficulty.
Use your credit card sparingly
- A high balance on your credit card can be a negative factor.
- Pay off your credit card bills in full each month to avoid high interest charges.
📌 Tip: Check your ZEK score before applying for bank credit.
