financing

The financing comes from the FinöV fund approved by the Volk in 1998 and includes the pre-financing of projects in Germany and the co-financing (à fonds perdu) of the projects in France. This means a departure from the principle of territoriality , according to which each state has to pay for the expenses on its own territory. However, Switzerland hopes that these contributions will generate disproportionate time savings, which it cannot bring about through domestic investments and which are more in their interest than in France's interest. The total volume of the proposal is 1.3 billion Swiss francs , of which only a commitment credit of 1090 million francs will be released in the first phase .
