Frequently Asked Questions
Why is ILS more volatile than most G10 currencies?
ILS is an emerging-market currency, which means it is more sensitive to global risk appetite, commodity cycles, and US Dollar strength. Daily ranges of 1–3% are common during risk-off episodes, compared to 0.5–1% for major G10 pairs.
What is a typical daily range for ILS/CHF?
Daily ranges vary with volatility regimes. Majors like EUR/USD typically move 0.5–1.2% on quiet days and 2–3% on data-release days. Check the 30-day chart above for a sense of the current range.
What economic events move ILS/CHF the most?
The biggest scheduled catalysts are central bank rate decisions and inflation prints and SNB rate decisions and Swiss sight-deposit data. Geopolitical headlines and global risk sentiment also produce meaningful moves, especially when one currency is a safe-haven and the other is risk-sensitive.
Is it cheaper to convert ILS to CHF at a bank or online?
Online money-transfer services (Wise, Revolut, Remitly, InstaRem) typically offer rates much closer to the mid-market ILS/CHF than traditional banks. Always compare the total delivered amount, not just the advertised "fee" — many providers embed their margin in the exchange rate itself.
Does the ILS/CHF rate change on weekends?
The interbank forex market closes from Friday 21:00 UTC until Sunday 21:00 UTC, so mid-market ILS/CHF rates don't update during that window. Retail broker spreads often widen at Sunday open as Asian desks reopen, so the first few hours of the new week can carry wider execution costs.
