The Swiss Bankers Association has proposed the creation of a Swiss franc-backed deposit token to support the country's digital economy. The token, which would be issued and redeemed by smart contracts and supervised intermediaries, is suggested as an alternative to existing stablecoins which have limited penetration in Switzerland.

The white paper identifies three design options, with the authors favouring a joint token model issued by a special purpose vehicle consisting of participating banks.
