Date 24/04/2017

A new clip explains the advantages of SIX Swiss Exchange At Midpoint, the non-displayed pool that allows execution of Swiss equities at the mid-point.

SIX Swiss Exchange at Midpoint offers all participants best execution possibilities on Swiss equities with price improvement over visible pricing on the exchange. SwissAtMid combines a non-displayed order book and the specific "Sweep" order type. To support the understanding how SwissAtMid works and how participants can enjoy its numerous benefits, SIX Swiss Exchange has produced the following clip.


Rob Cranston, Head Equity Product Management, comments: "SwissAtMid offers a new way to trade Swiss equities. We hope that our clip helps market participants to visualize the opportunities it provides to them and how easy it is to benefit of the new service."
