Swiss Franc Loans
wiss franc loans belong to that category of credit products that are particularly toxic in nature. Their content includes a series of prohibited contractual clauses, on the basis of which borrowers have initiated lawsuits against banks in recent years. One of the key complaints about the content of mortgage agreements is the lack of information regarding the risk associated with changes in currency exchange rates. The initial judgments in Swiss franc cases were not always favorable for borrowers. A turning point that led to a change in the situation for franc borrowers was the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Luxembourg dated October 3, 2019, case no. C-260/18 (case of Kamil Dziubak and Justyna Dziubak vs. Raiffeisen Bank International AG). Thanks to this judgment, a line of rulings favorable to borrowers began to form in Polish courts.
In light of the current CJEU jurisprudence directing Polish courts towards a pro-consumer approach, those Swiss franc borrowers who are in the process of repaying the loan, as well as those consumers who have already repaid such loans, can pursue their claims. The annulment of a Swiss franc loan agreement allows for the recovery of the amount of the loan repaid so far, but it can also form the basis for claiming a refund of interest due to the bank’s use of the repaid loan amount.
