Swiss Interest

HE Dr Rolf Lenz, the Swiss ambassador, gives an update on trade and Swiss investments in Malaysia, the impact of the rise of the Swiss franc on its export sector, his economic outlook of Switzerland, changes in its banking sector, the level of interest in Islamic banking, and on dealing with anti-Muslim movement. While investments in Malaysian companies are increasing, they're not for new technology areas due to talent issues. Interest in Islamic banking is still insignificant in Switzerland although the country receives funds from Middle Eastern investors. The government has banned minarets on mosques as a result of a public referendum but there is an anti-racism law in place. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
