Learn all the Details in the Factsheet PDF:
Together with their new CO:RE trading platform the SIX Repo introduced a new trading frontend with several new functionalities, like the new Evergreen Contract. As the Service Connector is no longer supported, every trading terminal and API based application requires a direct VPN access to the CO:RE backend, or a HW router with VPN capability. Traders need to timely adjust their IT infrastructure and connectivity setup, which typically requires the launch of an IT project.
The oraïse Exchange Services | SIX Repo deliver a tailor-made access to the new CO:RE platform, for an immediate use. A parallel test operation is made possible even during the changeover period and the access can be provided within a few days. This facilitates the migration considerably.
Advantages at glance:
oraïse offers three services to facilitate the migration to CO:RE.
Full Service Package – oraïse provides connectivity to SIX Repo and delivers a virtualised trading frontend for the trader‘s workstation. We utilise a fault tolerant virtualisation platform, which is operated in Zurich. No migration effort applies to participants of the CO:RE platform. The connection to the oraïse Exchange Services | SIX Repo platform can be implemented in different ways, including secure leased lines and secured internet connections.
Hosted Router Package – For a secured access to the CO:RE backend oraïse provides a dedicated router in both separate Zurich data centers. The participants can consolidate their trading frontend and also applications using API via this router – the software is run on the participant’s premises, with network connections to the hosted router in the data center is maintained by the customer.

The network connections to the SIX Repo systems are managed by the customer.

Exchange Market brokers can trade their Repo spot deals in Swiss denomination (primary and secondary markets) over the SIX platform since May 2014. This was feasible without any changes of connectivity, trading or clearing activities procedures. In 2015 a new solution will be launched, providing several advantages for trading and transaction management. This includes, higher liquidity as well as a high performance trading platform with standardised interfaces and new functionalities for the markets CH Repo and OTC Spot.
