Abstracts

Although cash remained an indispensable payment method for Swiss consumers in 2011, the growth in the number of new ATM machines stagnated over the review period. As the number of cash withdrawals declined as a result of the growing number of financial cards in circulation, as well as broader merchant acceptance and technological advances facilitating their use, cash was inevitably used less frequently. This began to impact the number of ATM cards.
