The SWX Swiss Exchange released on Wednesday its key figures for August 2008.
According to the figures, the SWX Swiss Exchange, SWX Europe and Scoach Switzerland had a combined turnover of CHF114.2bn francs in the month, down 31.5% on the previous month. The total number of transactions was 2,958,615.
For the most part, the Exchange's equity indices have advanced on a monthly comparison. The SMI® blue-chip index, for example, ended the month at 7,238.7 points, up 1.37 % against July 2008; the more broadly based SPI® closed at 6,061.8 points, up 1.63 %.
Late last month the SWX announced that its website now now offers a tool for reporting possible breaches by issuers of financial reporting regulations.
With this information and reporting platform, the SWX is aiming to simplify communications with relevant stakeholders in the market.
