I am a Financial Analyst working with an international company, I found out today that I will be moving to Lausanne for a 12-18 months assignment.

They will be paying for my rent, electricity, and water. I want to know how much exactly will I need to be able to live comfortably and be able to save a little. 1,500 CHF 2,000 CHF, in general I want to know how much do I need (minimum) to be able to live without worrying that I will run out of money.

Thank you

Well,  because they are paying for your rent including utility bills, you could ask for CHF100,000 depending on your age and experience.  You need to take into account paying your health insurance, income tax depending on what district.  Switzerland is very expensive, hence, you need to think about your lifestyle etc. For that salary, you could live comfortably.  good luck :)
