An interactive Moneyverse simulator allows players to act as SNB Chairman Martin Schlegel and explore central banking trade-offs by adjusting interest rates.

Swiss news outlet Finews reviewed an interactive educational simulator hosted on Moneyverse that allows users to experience managing monetary policy as Swiss National Bank (SNB) Chairman Martin Schlegel.

The platform provides players with a virtual cockpit where they can adjust Switzerland's key interest rates and observe the resulting economic trade-offs in real time. Raising rates reduces inflation and increases borrowing costs, which cools overall growth. Conversely, lowering interest rates stimulates economic expansion and makes credit cheaper, though it increases the risk of higher inflation. The simulation illustrates the balance central bankers must maintain between ensuring price stability and supporting broader economic growth.
