Trading activity in March 2007 was again at a record level. Total turnover on SWX and virt-x amounted to CHF 252 billion. That corresponds to 19.9 % increase over February 2007 and was mainly attributable to a 20.4% rise in share turnover (including funds) as well as a 65.3% leap in international bond trading. Moreover, it was the largest single-month turnover ever recorded on SWX/virt-x.
