Abstract:

The presentation is geared towards students interested in financial services, especially the exchange-traded futures and options markets. Specially, Dr. Vischer will speak about the role of an international exchange in terms of products and technology. The presentation begins with an overview of Eurex as one of the largest derivatives exchanges in the world. It will then go into a comparison between the U.S. and European Market models in order to give students a better understanding of the similarities and differences between the two, including differences in market models and regulatory aspects. The second part of the lecture includes a hands-on learning opportunity featuring our trading software (simulation environment).
