The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA has granted BX Swiss AG approval as Registration Office to maintain the Swiss register of client advisors in accordance with Article 31 of the Financial Services Act (FinSA). Approval will take effect on 20 July 2020, the date from which registered applicants will be able to submit applications for entry in the register of client advisors via the BX Swiss online platform.
With the approval of BX Swiss AG as the sole Registration Office to date, the six-month transition period pursuant to Art. 107 FinSO will begin to run: Accordingly, the application for entry in the register of advisors must be submitted by 19 January 2021 at the latest.
BX Swiss supports fully digital application processes based on the latest generation of technological platforms and RegTech solutions. The end-to-end digitisation of the application process allows BX Swiss to offer its registration services at a fee in the lower range of the legal bandwidth.
