Eurex - On 6 October 2010, As Part Of The 8th "Financial News Awards For Excellence In Trading And Technology" Eurex Won The Prize For "Best Futures And Options Exchange".

In 2010, Eurex again won out against stiff competition from the other futures exchanges nominated for the prize, namely CME, NYSE Liffe, Intercontinental Exchange and OMX Nordic Exchanges. Eurex last won the accolade in 2008. The awards ceremony was in London's Plaisterer's Hall – with 200 invitees representing the worlds of the exchanges, banking, brokering, clearing houses and technology providers. When describing why Eurex had been chosen, William Wright of Financial News emphasized above all the steady expansion of the Eurex product range and pointed to the fact that Europe's largest futures exchange has pronounced market and client focus. Stuart Heath, Head of the Deutsche Börse/Eurex representative office in London, was at hand to take proud receipt of the prize.
