Prague

Prague is the headquarters of two Deutsche Börse Group companies: Clearstream Operations Prague and Deutsche Börse Services s.r.o.

Karlin

Clearstream Operations Prague im Stadtteil Karlin

Clearstream Operations' modern office building is located in Karlin Prague 8, a district which now reflects its former glory. The office is a 20 minute walk from the city center and is close to the subway station Krizikova. Small shops, restaurants and cafés are in the near vicinity. Just 80 meters from the office, the Cyril and Metodej church is a stunning contrast to the backdrop of the Vítkov hill and its Jan Zizka statue.

Clearstream Operations Prague mainly focuses on back office operations for the Custody and Settlement area.

Nové Mesto

The office building of Deutsche Börse Services s.r.o in Prague’s Nové Mesto district is in the city center, near the Wenceslas square and the old town. The building is divided into two open-plan offices and several smaller offices, facilitating direct communication between the approximately 100 employees. Located in Vladislavova 17, the building has good access to public transport and is close to the central railway station, numerous hotels, restaurants and a number of the city’s cultural and nightlife highlights.

The Prague Deutsche Börse Services s.r.o. staff work on the development and maintenance of Deutsche Börse Group’s IT systems, focusing on the areas trading, clearing and settlement. Staff work in close cooperation with colleagues from the Group’s other main locations. In fact, the specialized development teams are frequently cross-border entities made up of employees from various locations. The projects thereby profit from the strong network between the Group locations in Prague, Frankfurt and Luxembourg.

The city of Prague

The “Golden City” developed from a thirteenth century fortified settlement on the Vlatva river into the multicultural capital of a modern Eastern European state. Today, more than one million people live in Prague – over ten percent of the Czech Republic’s total population. As one of Central Europe’s oldest and largest cities, Prague is an important European hub and business center.

A wide variety of well-preserved historic buildings reflect the town’s cultural diversity and turbulent history. The city center follows the Vlatva’s curve and offers impressive views with its towers, domes and 16 bridges. Among the city’s cultural landmarks is central Europe’s oldest university, Charles University, founded in 1348. In 1992, the historic center of Prague was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Since merchants first settled there in the Middle Ages, Prague has evolved into the economic center of the country as well as becoming an established European metropolis. 1989 saw the Velvet Revolution in the streets of Prague, heralding the end of the socialist regime. In 1993, after the split of Czechoslovakia, Prague became the capital of the new Czech Republic. Today, it is a favored location for the film industry. Manufacturing is also an important pillar of the economy, as is tourism – Prague is one of Europe’s most visited cities. The wide range of cultural activities and a mix of heritage, history and modern life make the city attractive to both international companies and individuals from all over the world.
