Swiss stock exchange SIX will collaborate with Inventx, an IT service provider, to ensure the smooth interconnection of their complementary ix.OpenFinancePlatform and bLink open-finance hubs going forward.

Following the cooperation between Swisscom and SIX announced in March, this partnership will enable financial institutions and third-party providers to gain easier access to the Swiss open-finance ecosystem.

The respective platform offerings will continue to exist independently in the market.

As part of this partnership, the participants get to choose between the best services on both ix.OFP and bLink.

SIX said in a statement,

“With this cooperation, the two technology providers are sending another positive signal in the discussion about more standardisation – especially when it comes to financial institutions. Both companies are convinced that all participants and the Swiss financial center as a whole will benefit from the formation of overarching open-finance ecosystems.”
