A Few White Papers
you are currently viewing::New SIX White Paper: Swiss Versus US ListingsFebruary 4, 2026-Switzerland is uniquely positioned as a listing destination, yet tech companies sometimes gravitate in their listing considerations toward the US in pursuit of higher valuations and broader perceived advantages such as investor access, liquidity, and research coverage. To separate fact from fiction around these factors, SIX has published a new edition of the white paper ‘Evaluating the Aspects of a Swiss versus a US Listing’. The findings reveal that Switzerland's IPO credentials stack up strongly against the US. Access to US investors does not require a US listing. A listing on SIX Swiss Exchange enables issuers to target US institutional buyers via a Rule 144A offering, which allows securities to be sold to qualified institutional buyers without needing to register with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. At the same time, Switzerland has one of Europe's largest pools of investor capital -valued at USD 207 billion- which is second only in size to the UK. Source: six-group.com |
From Ports to Prices: The Inflationary Effects of Global Supply Chain Disruptions
February 13, 2026--Summary
This paper examines the inflationary effects of shipping delays. We construct a novel measure of port-to-port shipping time using real-time AIS maritime data and link it with granular port-level trade and item-level price data. We document substantial heterogeneity in goods imports across ports and regions, variation in exposure to delays, and aggregate price responses to congestion shocks.
