GDR Listings on SIX Swiss Exchange – A Sino-Swiss Success Story?


Wednesday, 7 June 2022

12.00 - 14.00

VISCHER AG, Schuetzengasse 1, 8001 Zurich

The China-Switzerland Stock Connect Program has so far witnessed 13 Chinese companies successfully listing global depository receipts (GDRs) on SIX Swiss Exchange. Dozens more companies are preparing or have already started their applications.

Why is the Swiss capital market so attractive to Chinese companies? What are the prospects and implications of GDR listings? How do SIX Swiss Exchange and the Chinese home market perceive this listing boom? What is the latest regulatory development?

Experts from Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, SIX Swiss Exchange and VISCHER will discuss these questions and more.

We are pleased to invite you to this Lunch & Learn event in collaboration with the Swiss-Chinese Chamber of Commerce (SCCC).
