1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose and Scope This Product Guide provides relevant information on SIX Concentration Analytics Hourly (SCAH) according to the General Terms and Conditions for SIX Analytics Services. This Product Guide does not take precedent over the Agreement on SIX Analytics Services (including the General Terms and Conditions for SIX Analytics Services). 2 Data Format 2.1 File Format SCAH is provided in a delimited text file (CSV) that uses a semicolon (“;”) to separate values. 2.2 File Name The CSV file containing data for trading day YYYY-MM-DD has the file name “six_hhi_granularity_hourly_YYYYMMDD.csv”. “granularity” is a placeholder for one of the two granularity levels as defined in Section 3.4 and can take the values “memberorg” or “member”. For example, the data for April 19, 2023 for granularity level “memberorg” is provided in the file called “six_hhi_memberorg_hourly_20230419.csv”. 3 Data Content SCAH provides insights into market concentration on SIX Swiss Exchange per day and security. 3.1 Security Universe SCAH is computed for securities in the following trading segments subject to the corresponding inclusion requirements: Trading Segment Name Trading segment ID Inclusion requirements Blue Chip Shares 26 (until and including 4 December 2020) and 25 (from 7 December 2020)

3.3 Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) Market concentration is measured by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI). The HHI is the sum of the squared market shares of all market participants. It is calculated as follows: 𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻𝐻= 𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑖 2 𝑁𝑁 𝑖𝑖=1
𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑖 denotes market share of market participant 𝑖𝑖, where, 𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑖= 𝑞𝑞𝑖𝑖 𝑞𝑞𝑗𝑗 𝑁𝑁 𝑗𝑗=1
𝑞𝑞𝑖𝑖 represents the number of shares traded by market participant 𝑖𝑖, 𝑞𝑞𝑗𝑗 the number of shares traded by any market participant, and 𝑁𝑁 denotes the total number of market participants. Thus, the HHI can assume values from 0 to 1. In order to protect anonymity in markets with very high concentration, no exact HHIs are provided for values above 0.6. Instead, 0.6 is specified. 3.4 Market Participant Identification Market participants are identified on two levels of granularity, for each of which a separate CSV with separate HHI calculations is provided on a daily basis: Granularity Level Comment Member Organisation ID Lower granularity level Note: Sponsored users are considered separate member organisations even though they route their orders via the member organisation ID of the sponsoring participant. Member ID Higher granularity level A member organisation may have several member IDs through which orders are routed. Table 3 Granularity levels of market participant identification 3.5 Flow Classification Order flow is classified as follows: Classification Definition Overall flow All shares traded during continuous trading, auctions and Trading-At-Last Aggressive flow Shares aggressively traded during continuous trading Passive flow Shares passively traded during continuous trading Auction flow Shares traded during auctions and Trading-At-Last Customer flow Trading under the risk-less principal capacity during continuous trading, auctions and Trading-At-Last and not originating from a Sponsored Access User Non-customer flow Shares traded under the principal capacity or originating from a Sponsored Access User during continuous trading, auctions and Trading-At-Last Table 4 Market participant classification
