SIX, the leading operator of the Swiss and Spanish financial market infrastructures, today confirmed the successful placement of an EUR 500 million bond issued by its subsidiary SIX Finance (Luxembourg) S.A. This follows the successful issuance of a CHF 250 million digital bond on May 14, 2025. Featuring a 3.25% per annum coupon and a maturity in 2030, the EUR 500 million bond attracted significant investor interest. The bonds will be listed at SIX Swiss Exchange.
The offering attracted significant interest from a diverse range of institutional investors across multiple regions. The net proceeds from the EUR 500 million bond will be used for general corporate purposes of the issuer and the Group which may include the refinancing of existing debt.
Daniel Schmucki, CFO SIX, commented: “This successful bond issuance in the EUR market, following our good performance in the CHF bond market last week, highlights the trust investors have in SIX across both markets. The strong demand underscores stakeholders' recognition of the robust financial position of SIX backed by a successful track record, solid cash generation, a diverse business model, and promising growth potential.”
Standard & Poor’s Global Ratings has reaffirmed the strong issuer credit ratings of SIX Group AG (A) and its subsidiaries, SIX x-clear AG and SIX SIS AG (A+) in November 2024 and assigned its A issue credit rating to both above mentioned bonds.
The issuance was led by BNP PARIBAS, BofA Securities, Deutsche Bank AG and UBS Investment Bank, serving as active bookrunners on the transaction.
