German equities Exchange , Deutsche Börse AG, has announced that it has taken a stake in the latest derivatives exchange formed post G20 regulatory reforms. The Frankfurt-based exchange, which celebrated 20 years of establishment, has paid ‘a single-digit million GBP' figure for the single stake, as stated in the official notification.

Regulatory reforms taking place in the USA under Dodd-Frank and in Europe under EMIR and MiFID II have evolved the market place for-over-the counter products, and have created new opportunities for venues looking to absorb transactions migrating from the OTC environment to an exchanged trade environment.
