Indeed the collaboration signifies a desire of SIX to provide a solution to assist their clients to navigate the evolving sanctions landscape in a highly agile way, working with ULTUMUS to leverage their expertise across global ETF and Indices.

Bernie Thurston, CEO, ULTUMUS, states “Working with SIX allows us to provide a complete solution to clients trading in the international ETF market and highlights our desire in making ETFs more transparent and efficient to trade.”

Stephane Hug, Senior Product Manager, Financial information, SIX, comments: “Working with ULTUMUS as a partner allows us to further enhance our funds compliance service offering to our clients and address the changing regulatory requirements with one solution”
