Improved access to the European markets 

A listing at Deutsche Börse positions your company in the focus of the economic center of continental Europe and Germany, builds your brand among European customers as well as cooperation partners and improves market access for your products in Europe.

High reputation and great benefits from the prestige of global brands and market leaders

Develop into an international “world class” company and gain reputation with a listing on the world’s leading exchange, alongside global brands and market leaders such as Adidas, Allianz, Bayer, BASF, BMW, DaimlerChrysler, Deutsche Bank, EADS, HUGO BOSS, Lufthansa, Porsche, PUMA, SAP, Siemens and many more. You can further increase the visibility of your company and investors’ attention by joining a variety of internationally established and recognized indices, such as the well known DAX® index family.

Cost-efficient access to capital and unsurpassed liquidity

You can gain cost-efficient access to capital and achieve unsurpassed liquidity of stock trading after your IPO – due to Deutsche Börse’s liquidity-oriented business model. As a fully integrated exchange organization, Deutsche Börse offers the most cost-efficient trading – and, in consequence, the highest liquidity. A recent analysis by the World Federation of Exchanges shows that Deutsche Börse is Europe’s No. 1 in collecting liquidity. With more than 1,200,000 daily trades on its electronic platform Xetra, Deutsche Börse has the highest transaction volume and by far the highest turnover velocity compared with Euronext and the London Stock Exchange (LSE). At the same time, investors and traders profit from the lowest all-in trading fees. This means that Deutsche Börse offers the best service at the lowest price to its trading members. This is important for listed companies: high liquidity and low trading cost lead to lower cost of capital.

Direct access to a global pool of “new” investors and high valuations

The international and highly reliable electronic trading platform Xetra provides access to an international pool of investors and more than 4,500 traders with about 270 participants in 19 countries, including all the European financial centers. As opposed to most other stock exchanges, including the London Stock Exchange (LSE), this advantageous electronic trading system is open to blue chip stocks like Siemens and DaimlerChrysler as well as all small-cap stocks, German and international stocks. Xetra is a single integrated and powerful trading system and has an infrastructure for all 7,400 stocks traded at Deutsche Börse. Companies from business sectors like automotive, engineering, renewable energy, technology, telecommunication, life science and financial services profit from strong peer groups and high valuations.
