Reuss has been with the trading venue for just over 15 years, originally joining in 2009 as chief executive of a joint venture named Scoach, in partnership with Deutsche Börse.
He later moved into a role as chief executive of SIX’s structure products exchange in 2013, rising up the ranks to chief executive of SIX Swiss Exchange in 2020.
Head of trading at SIX Swiss Exchange, Werner Bürki, has been selected to replace Reuss on an interim basis.
SIX confirmed recruitment for a full-time replacement is in progress.
“Today, I ring my personal Closing Bell at SIX Swiss Exchange,” said Reuss in a statement on social media. “It was a tremendous ride. Thank you all for contributing to this remarkable experience.”
Reuss has had an extensive career to date, after also previously serving as an executive director in the equities division at Goldman Sachs for seven and a half years.
His next role is unconfirmed.
