The Square The Luxembourg-based home of Clearstream reflects – perhaps even more so than the other locations of Deutsche Börse Group – the internationality of the Group, with a broad variety of nationalities working in one location. In typical Group fashion the new office buildings, named “The Square”, are light, spacious and open-plan, encouraging communication and interaction among employees. The architectural style and furnishing is in line with the corporate design. As part of corporate culture, the art collection “XL Photography” has also been extended to Luxembourg, with a number of contemporary art works exhibited for the benefit of both employees and visitors. However, “The Square” also represents the individuality of the company: large glass fronts team up with terracotta here. In line with the motto of modernity and innovation in which the buildings were constructed, a centralized recycling system has also been implemented. The Clearstream headquarters is located in the emerging business and financial center Kirchberg. The staff restaurant in “The Square” offers a broad range of dishes and the large shopping mall just opposite the front entrance makes for a nice change of scenery at lunch time. The City of Luxembourg The city of Luxembourg with 80,000 inhabitants, is the largest municipality of the Grand Duchy that borders on Germany, Belgium and France. Besides German, the official languages in the internationally renowned financial metropolis are French and Luxembourgish. In 1994, the city of Luxembourg was declared a world heritage site by UNESCO. The old town around the original fortress has been almost fully preserved. With its numerous bars, cafés and restaurants it is the ideal place to while away the hours. The green areas in the valleys of the city are supplemented by a spacious park around the center towards the west; they are frequently described as the 'green lungs of the city'. What’s more, Luxembourg currently has the highest gross national product of all member states of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. |
