Second extrapolation for 2024: Confederation reckoning on financing deficit of CHF 900 million
The Federal Council was informed about the current extrapolation on 23 October 2024. The Confederation is reckoning on a financing deficit of CHF 900 million for this year. The expected deficit is thus likely to be lower than forecast in the June extrapolation (-1.6 bn) and in the budget (-2.6 bn), as a result of lower expenditure and the deferral to next year of the extraordinary capital contribution to SBB.
