The latest issue of the "Bonds Quarterly Statistics" report looks at the performance of SIX Swiss Exchange's Bonds segment in the first quarter of 2018. |
Today, SIX Swiss Exchange published the latest edition of its Bonds Quarterly Statistics[PDF]. The turnover in the CHF Bonds segment amounted to CHF 30.9 billion in the first quarter of 2018, represented a slight decrease of 1% in turnover compared to the previous quarter. Relative to the first quarter of 2017, the turnover was 19% lower in the first quarter of 2018. This decrease can be mainly attributed to a drop in turnover in bonds of the Swiss Confederation and foreign banks by 40% and 21%, respectively. At the end of the quarter, the CHF Bond segment covered a total of 1'710 bonds.
Small Decrease in Non-CHF Bonds
In the Non-CHF Bonds segment, the turnover was EUR 5 billion in the first quarter of 2018. This presents a small decrease of 1% compared to the previous quarter, but a 26% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2017.
