Digital assets are increasingly seen as fundamental to the future of finance. SIX – most well-known as the operator of the Swiss stock exchange, but also a broader provider of exchange services, financial information and banking services in Switzerland and Spain – has positioned itself for this future by launching the blockchain-based SIX Digital Exchange (SDX) in November 2021 and issuing a digital bond.
David Newns, head of SDX, says: “Innovation is critical for SIX, which is also the reason why we seized the opportunity to issue the digital bond in a fully regulated environment.”
