BX Swiss launches its first three indices

BX Swiss Top 30, BX Swiss All Share and BX Swiss Immo Index mark the beginning of the index family on BX Swiss

With the first three indices, BX Swiss launches its first own family of indices. BX Swiss Top 30, BX Swiss All Share and BX Swiss IMMO Index build the foundation.

With the indices, BX Swiss wants to address a broad audience and create a new and flexible platform for interested issuers to set up their own indices and issue corresponding products. Investors will thus have a wide range of products at their disposal. For SMEs listed on BX Swiss in the SME Main Market Segment, the indices also offer a great opportunity to be included in an index.

BX Swiss will soon welcome the first index issuers and further thematic indices will follow. 

All three indices are published both as price indices and as performance indices (gross & net). 

The index series is calculated by Solactive AG, a company founded in 2007, which has since developed into one of the market leaders in the index industry.

"We are very pleased to be able to launch, together with BX Swiss, the first indices with a Swiss exchange. With this step, BX Swiss is laying an important foundation to open another product offering to its investors, SMEs and issuers," Steffen Scheuble, CEO of Solactive AG, commented further.

"We are proud to be able to provide our issuers and also SMEs with a new, yet proven instrument, on our exchange with our own BX Swiss Indices," emphasises David Kunz, COO of BX Swiss AG. "With Solactive, we are pleased to have a swift and flexible partner at our side with whom we can develop and launch further indices.
