The international derivatives exchange Eurex has been launched Eurex Innovate recently, its new ideas and discussion forum for customers and people interested in financial markets and derivatives. The aim of the online forum – https://innovate.eurexchange.com – is to initiate and promote a web-based network to exchange information about product innovations on Eurex and to discuss events of financial and derivatives markets.
“We want to the use the internet as a means of further increasing the exchange of information with our customers and people interested in our company. Eurex Innovate will allow us to involve these people more closely in the product development process," said Peter Reitz, member of the Eurex Executive Board. “The experience and ideas of our participants are key factors driving the expansion of our product and service range.”
Eurex Innovate consists of two areas: the “Ideas Board” and the “Discussion Board”. Via the Ideas Board, participants can simply submit suggestions, which are then evaluated by Eurex product specialists and further analyzed together with the contributors. The status of the idea can be traced online. The Discussion Board serves as a means of exchanging information about products, trading strategies and financial market trends. At present, the product-specific forums “Fixed Income”, “Equities”, “Equity Index Derivatives” and “Other Asset Classes” have been set up for this purpose. A simple and one-time registration process is all that is required to use Eurex Innovate.
