"We welcome Banco de Investimento Global, and we are pleased that this Portuguese bank recognizes the advantages of our business model, which comprises anonymous electronic trading, central clearing and efficient collateral management via Clearstream", said Marcel Naas, Managing Director of Eurex Repo.

He added that, "We expect that our direct membership will help us manage risks while adding efficiency and flexibility to our business model and look forward to working with Eurex Repo."
