rta aktuell - 2018 edition

Dear reader - Digital change is omnipresent: in the media, at symposia and, of course, in companies.

Digital change is omnipresent: in the media, at symposiums and, of course, in companies. However, digitalization is not a new phenomenon.

But everyone is talking about it now - and rightly so! The speed and intensity with which new applications and processes are becoming established and replacing existing ones is impressive. Digital change harbors enormous opportunities and risks, it raises hopes and fears and will certainly continue to occupy us all.

We have also been working intensively on digitalization. "rta aktuell" shows the first results: We would like to introduce you to the highly topical "blockchain" technology and the first practical applications that we have developed together with a partner. Discover new digital functions for share registers, meeting management and document storage with our "rta trust" solution. These are just the beginning of comprehensive digital corporate governance. You can look forward to further interesting applications!

In addition to digital "change" at rta, we are reporting on a successful "generational change" in personnel: Michael von Gunten joined our team last February, while our long-standing member of the Executive Board Markus Zeller took - well-deserved - early retirement at the end of October. 

Despite digitalization, one thing is clear to us: people, our customers, business partners and employees remain our focus. We are happy to remain in dialog with you. 

Yours, Rolf Ramseier
