Features of the SBB statistics portal

The income statement, balance sheet and cashflow below provide a short and clear overview of SBB’s financial situation from a Group perspective. By showing the public sector funding, we make clear the significance of public money to SBB, and not least for the additions to assets. The figures on SBB’s purchasing volume and references from the extensive annual and financial reports as well as diagrams on selected financial indices round up the insight into SBB’s finances.
