SIX SWISS EXCHANGE AND NASDAQ TO DEVELOP DISTRIBUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGY FOR SIX'S OTC STRUCTURED PRODUCTS

NEW YORK and ZURICH, Switzerland, Aug 9 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SIX Swiss Exchange and Nasdaq, Inc. (Nasdaq:NDAQ) today have announced that Nasdaq, in collaboration with its technology partner Chain, will provide distributed ledger technology (DLT) for a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for SIX’s OTC structured products business. The solution will integrate with several systems currently managed by SIX and utilize the DLT capabilities at the core of the Nasdaq Financial Framework, Nasdaq’s next-generation enterprise architecture stack. With the MVP, SIX gains first-hand experience regarding the implementation of a DLT solution and investigating how to leverage blockchain technology for SIX and its members in the post-trade environment.  

“We are always keen to explore innovative technologies which could serve as basis for wider commercial offering,” said Chris Landis, Division CEO SIX Swiss Exchange. “Working together with Nasdaq reinforces our commitment towards being an exchange at the technology forefront.”
