Sponsored Funds: New Milestone Set with over 600 Investment Funds

Investors who want to trade traditional investment funds with all the advantages of a regulated exchange will find a broad offering with very different characteristics for individual portfolio needs. They can buy and sell traditional funds as easily as equities: with a high degree of transparency, continuous pricing and execution of the order within seconds. This allows the portfolio to be put together as desired and managed efficiently; investors can react quickly to market changes - a major advantage in a volatile market environment. The Sponsored Funds segment is an innovative addition to the broad offering of SIX Swiss Exchange, providing investors with additional diversification through access to a large number of investment funds.
