The honest sorting page

You searched for Valoren. There are two of us.

One is a six-to-nine-digit number that identifies securities on Swiss financial markets. The other is an estate-planning platform in England and Wales.

This page exists to sort out which one you meant.

The Swiss one

The Valorennummer is a Swiss securities identification number, typically 6–9 digits, issued and administered by SIX Financial Information, part of SIX Group — the official securities numbering agency for Switzerland. It typically appears on fund factsheets and term sheets, and can often be looked up via SIX Swiss Exchange's own quote and product search tools. Swiss ISINs embed it: the ISIN is formed as the country code "CH" plus the Valoren number (zero-padded) plus a check digit — in other words, Swiss ISINs are constructed from the Valoren number. We're not them, and we can't look yours up.

Us

Valoren is an estate-planning platform for England and Wales: a complete will, your records kept in one household dossier, and a handover your family could actually act on — not a folder of paperwork, a living record. Nothing Swiss, nothing financial-markets. The name comes from the same place the Valorennummer's does — the Latin valor, meaning value, or worth — arrived at independently, not borrowed.

A couple more questions, answered.

No — the name is a coincidence, not a borrowing. The Valorennummer is a Swiss securities identifier administered by a Swiss financial-markets institution; Valoren is an estate-planning platform for England and Wales. The two simply share the same Latin root, valor — meaning value, or worth.

It typically appears on the security's own fund factsheet or term sheet, and can often be looked up via SIX Swiss Exchange's own quote and product search tools. We can't look it up for you — we're not the Swiss numbering agency, just a company that happens to share its name.

We help households in England and Wales get their affairs in order — a complete will from £149, and a full household dossier (records, named people, a handover your family could actually act on) from £195 in the first year. Nothing to do with Swiss securities.
