Recent forecasts suggest a mixed outlook for the AUD to CHF exchange rate, influenced by ongoing global trade tensions and economic developments in Australia and Switzerland. Analysts note that the Australian dollar (AUD) has gained support due to reduced trade tensions between the US and China, which is particularly significant given Australia's reliance on commodity exports to China.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Australian dollar to Swiss franc:

However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).
The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.

Get vaccinated: Check with your healthcare provider or a travel medicine specialist to ensure that you are up to date on any required or recommended vaccinations for travel to the DRC.
Plan your route carefully: Avoid traveling to areas that are considered to be dangerous or that have ongoing conflicts. Some parts of the country are completely off-limits to foreigners, so be sure to plan your route and accommodations accordingly.
Be prepared for unexpected delays: The DRC has a poorly developed infrastructure and transport can be unreliable. Be prepared for flight delays, cancellations, or other transport-related issues.
Be aware of the local laws: Be sure to familiarize yourself with the local laws and customs of the DRC to avoid any misunderstandings or legal issues.
Have emergency contact: Make sure someone know your itinerary, and contact information for emergency and consular assistance.
Have contact of good medical facilities and emergency medical evacuation services in case of any emergency situation.

Switzerland has some restrictions and additional fees that may apply to property purchases by foreigners. Here are a few key points to keep in mind:
Restrictions on second homes: In some cantons (regions) and municipalities, there may be restrictions on the purchase of second homes by foreigners, particularly in popular ski and tourist areas. These restrictions are usually put in place to prevent the local housing market from becoming too expensive for residents.
Additional fees: Foreigners may be subject to additional taxes and fees when purchasing property in Switzerland. These can include a federal withholding tax of 3% on the purchase price, as well as cantonal and municipal taxes.
Permits: In some cases, foreigners may also be required to obtain a permit from the local authorities in order to purchase property in Switzerland, which can take some time to process and may involve additional fees.
Rental properties: If you are planning to purchase a property as a rental, be aware that some cantons have restrictions on short-term rentals, and also have strict regulations that must be followed.
Mortgages: Foreigners may also find it more difficult to obtain a mortgage from a Swiss bank, as the lending criteria may be different from what they are used to. They may also be required to provide a larger deposit, or to pay higher interest rates.
Inheritance Tax: Switzerland does not have a federal inheritance tax but some cantons do have an inheritance tax, which can be significant in some cases.
It's worth noting that these rules and regulations can vary depending on the location and the specific property being purchased, so it's important to do your research and consult with a local real estate professional, lawyer or a tax expert to ensure you understand the requirements and costs associated with purchasing property in Switzerland as a foreigner.
