Swiss Civil Code

¹ A mort­gage con­tract is cre­ated in a spe­cif­ic rank even if the se­cured amount is in­de­term­in­ate or vari­able, and it re­tains such rank not­with­stand­ing any fluc­tu­ations in the se­cured amount.

² The cred­it­or may re­quest that the land re­gis­trar provide him or her with an ex­tract con­cern­ing the mort­gage con­tract. Such an ex­tract has only evid­en­tial status and does not con­sti­tute a ne­go­ti­able in­stru­ment.

³ In lieu of such evid­ence, a cer­ti­fic­ate of re­gis­tra­tion may be ap­pen­ded to the mort­gage con­tract deed.
