Trading suspensions

Swiss equities suspended from trading

July 1, 2019. FRANKFURT. The EU Commission has not extended the exchange equivalence of the Swiss stock exchanges, i.e. the recognition of Swiss stock exchange laws as equivalent, for the period after 30 June 2019. The Swiss government has reacted with countermeasures that result in EU trading centres being refused recognition. This in turn means that EU trading centres will no longer be allowed to offer trading in Swiss shares from 1 July 2019.

The management of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is therefore legally obliged to suspend trading in the 185 Swiss shares and certificates representing shares on the Open Market. Shares in the Regulated Market and other securities (bonds, funds, ETFs or derivatives such as investment certificates) are not affected.
