Of the con­sol­i­dated operating added value of CHF 4.7 bil­lion, 90% or CHF 4.3 bil­lion was generated in Switzer­land. Operating added value in Switzer­land was unchanged year-on-year. The value added per FTE was CHF 267,000 (prior year: CHF 263,000). In addition to direct added value, purchases from suppliers provide significant indirect added value for Switzer­land’s economy. Taking into account capital ex­pen­di­ture instead of de­pre­ci­a­tion and amor­ti­sa­tion, the purchasing volume in the Swiss business was around CHF 4.4 bil­lion in 2021, with added value of approximately 60% or CHF 2.7 bil­lion contributed by suppliers in Switzer­land.
