Börsen-Zeitung: “MiFID II gives us opportunities”, Interview with Thomas Book, CEO, Eurex Frankfurt
The German version of this article originally appeared in the Börsen-Zeitung on 5 May 2017.
In an interview with the Börsen-Zeitung Thomas Book, CEO Eurex, talks about Eurex’s strong performance in the year to date and the company’s outlook for the future as it “aspires to become the leading derivatives exchange for global indices”.
He also speaks on the opportunities offered by MiFID II, the upcoming overhaul of the original Markets in Financial Instruments Directive, which is set to expand the regulation to cover derivatives in 2018. In a market that keeps shifting away from over-the-counter business towards regulated exchange trading, Eurex, operator of “one of the world’s leading derivatives markets”, can make a key contribution.
