Eurex to launch new trading system

German bourse aims to roll out new architecture by year-end

Eurex, Europe’s largest futures exchange, is set to launch a new high-speed trading system by year-end, in the first technological overhaul of its core derivatives platform following its operator’s failed merger bid with NYSE Euronext.

The platform, built on the group's proprietary technology, is already live on Deutsche Börse's US options trading platform, the International Securities Exchange, in a market dominated by high-speed trading where low-latency platforms are essential.
