Swiss bank formats for reconciliation

Export CAMT.053 (account statement) or CAMT.054 (debit/credit notification) from e-banking, import into Cortex, validate proposed matching, then continue to assisted reconciliation — file import only.

In Switzerland, CAMT.053, MT940, PDF and CSV vary by bank (UBS, Raiffeisen, PostFinance, BCV…). Cortex prepares statements for assisted reconciliation with human validation, then export — no permanent bank connection. See bank reconciliation and the Organized Accounting pillar.
