Deloitte Legal recognised as Knowledgeable Representative of Issuers for all product categories
We are thrilled to announce that SIX Exchange Regulation officially recognised Deloitte Legal Switzerland as Knowledgeable Representative of Issuers. With the capital market legal expertise of our two competent legal specialists Dr. Roger Fankhauser, Partner, and Christian Bonhôte, Director, we managed to extend Deloitte’s previous recognition in the area of “Auditors” to the additional area of “Lawyers”. The recognition covers all product categories: shares, bonds, collective investment schemes, derivatives and exchange traded products.
This recognition marks a significant milestone for Deloitte Legal.
