Continuously enhancing the value chain
Large-scale technological change has the potential to transform the DNA of our industry as a whole. Big data, smart data, API, the cloud and blockchain technology will impact the way we think and the way we do business.
Our Deutsche Börse Content Lab will combine, process and analyse internal as well as external data in the future. Using pattern recognition and big data to create attractive data products the Content Lab is determined to maintain a ground-breaking role in developing and deploying new technologies for the financial markets.
Deutsche Börse Content Lab - the value of data for markets
This research department within Deutsche Börse Group’s Market Data + Services segment is looking for solutions that are not directly driven by specific client requests. The Lab provides a space for a team to look at concepts, which will be attractive for the next 10 to 20 years and work on them without any self-imposed censorship. The Content Lab’s think-tank concept is thus a perfect match for Deutsche Börse Group’s growth strategy: a small, agile team that has the ability to swiftly try out things and think outside the box all while using innovative concepts and tools like big data and pattern recognition.
Working, for example, with big data – i.e. data packages that are so big that they cannot be processed in a regular way – enables the Content Lab to prepare very attractive new offers. Currently, it is collaborating with colleagues at the foreign exchange (FX) trading platform 360T®. In this context, the Content Lab has analysed data points in order to create a new data feed which highlights FX market movements much faster than a simple aggregation of all data would do.
