virt-x, the London-based securities exchange and subsidiary of SWX Group, is to change its name following the merger of SWX Group, SIS Group and Telekurs Group in 2008.
Effective 3 March 2008 virt-x Exchange Limited will change its legal name to SWX Europe Limited.
In keeping with the core values of the merged Swiss Financial Market Services AG, the name change reflects the commitment of the new enterprise to promoting SWX Swiss Exchange and SWX Europe as preeminent liquidity venues for Swiss securities trading.
