Statement By Assistant Secretary For Economic Policy Jan Eberly For The Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee Of The Securities Industry And Financial Markets Association

Date 29/10/2012

The United States economy continues to heal from the worst recession since the Great Depression, with economic activity continuing at a moderate pace this year. Economic growth reflects in part the effect of severe drought conditions on agricultural output and the ongoing sovereign debt crisis in Europe. These challenges notwithstanding, private-sector activity continues to expand and the housing market is beginning to improve, though there is clearly more work to do. Private forecasters expect moderate growth through the remainder of the year, with activity gradually strengthening over the course of 2013. According to the advance report on third-quarter GDP released late last week, real GDP growth accelerated to a 2.0 percent annual rate from 1.3 percent in the second quarter, partly reflecting faster growth of consumer spending and residential investment.

Deutsche Börse Q3/2012: Net Revenue Of Roughly Half A Billion Euros In Weak Market Environment - Net Revenue Of €471 Million In Weak Market Environment - Adjusted Earnings Per Share Of €0.87 - Cost Target For 2012 Confirmed - Expenditures For Growth Are To Be Increased Further In 2013 - Share Buyback Program Of Around €100 Million In Q4/2012

Date 29/10/2012

Deutsche Börse AG published its results for the third quarter 2012, which continued to be dominated by a markedly weak market environment, on Monday. At €471.0 million, net revenue was considerably lower than in the previous year (Q3/2011: €578.6 million). In the prior-year period market participants had entered into more hedges than usual and regrouped their portfolios more frequently due to substantial volatility connected with the turbulence in the euro zone and the downgrade of the US credit rating. Despite increased expenses for growth initiatives, the Group’s adjusted operating costs amounted to €225.6 million, virtually on a level with the previous year. Adjusted for special items, earnings per share amounted to €0.87 in the third quarter of 2012.
