Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/30/2013 -- Switzerland's growth trajectory in 2013 and 2014 will be driven primarily by consumer and investment spending, with the potential for the government to step in and boost growth in the event that the situation in the eurozone sharply interrupts Swiss growth.

However, the massive scale of the monetary easing involved in such foreign exchange intervention could dramatically inflate property prices if maintained into the medium term.
