SWIC Digital
enables all people to invest
VISION
“SWIC Digital enables all people to invest in a secure, fast and affordable way via our blockchain-based investment platform”
Stefan Bucher

WHAT IS THE CURRENT CHALLENGE?
More than 1 bn potential investors in the emerging markets have no or only limited access to the banking system and are therefore excluded from professional investment options. SWIC Digital solves many problems with the SWIC Gateway.
Financial inclusion
The current global financial system is only “global” insofar as certain people in certain countries can access banking and investment products around the world. Most financial products and services are accessible only to high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs). SWIC enables private individuals to save and invest via smartphone.
Traditional financial providers do not target small investors
Due to the limited geographical distribution and high costs per transaction with obsolete systems and processes force providers to ignore private individuals as a target group. Existing intermediaries provide a little level of orders, transferring value – especially across borders – is slow and inconvenient. SWIC gives you an affordable solution with tokenization of the financial products enabling them to enter the new emerging markets.
SWIC Gateway
The SWIC Gateway is a blockchain-based platform that enables the direct exchange of assets between investors and providers of financial products, including immediate clearing and settlement via Smart Contracts. For the Provider SWIC offers the tokenization of their financial products and lists them on the platform. For the Investors “Users” SWIC provides an easy-to-use mobile app which allows them to invest without a bank account.
Our Solution
The name for the App is TUKKI – contraction of the word Toucan (eng) and Tucan (es). The good visual image – bright and friendly mascot. We are …

Target Market
We target the MSCI Emerging Markets with the pilot market, the Philippines and then focus on Mexico, Brazil, Thailand, and South Africa. These countries have great potential with a growing number of young and educated people who have a regular income but is underbanked.
Product Offering
SWIC provides access to a small selection of investment opportunities. SWIC wants to make available only long-term and stable financial products. We do not wish to give access to speculative products for quick profits with a high risk of loss.
Our focus is on long-term asset growth and support of the saving goals of our customers.
