Börsen-Zeitung: "European ETF trading flourishes in Frankfurt" Guest contribution by Dr. Martin Reck, Managing Director Deutsche Börse AG

(German only)

Titel: Dr. Martin Reck, Deutsche Börse Cash Market

Under the title "Europe's ETF trading thrives in Frankfurt" Martin Reck looks back on 20 years of ETF history at Deutsche Börse and discusses trends in the industry.

With just two products and assets under management of €400 million, Deutsche Börse brought ETF trading to Europe at the time. Since then, Frankfurt's Xetra trading has led the way in a rapidly growing market. The trend towards passive investments is unbroken.
