Switzerland’s Six Digital Exchange Launches With Blockchain Bond

The SDX blockchain bond is the first digital issuance that uses regulated market infrastructure, according to parent company SIX.

A SIX logo sits on the exterior of the Six Swiss Exchange AG stock exchange in Zurich, Switzerland, on Thursday, Aug. 22, 2019. In a move that has implications for Brexit, Switzerland disallowed the trading of its shares on the bloc's bourses as of July 1 to prevent a drop in liquidity as it faced the expiry of its recognition under European Union rules.
