Acting as a Designated Sponsor (market maker) is one of the key services we provide for listed companies. Quoting binding bid/offer prices for your shares is the designated sponsor's main function to ensure a liquid trading on the trading platform Xetra®. 

Due to the over-fulfillment of the specified requirements of Deutsche Börse AG, for example, by reducing the level of the required spreads over the entire trading period, we are regularly awarded the highest AA rating for our services from Deutsche Börse AG. That includes direct contact to our staff who constantly monitor market movements relating to your stock and inform you immediately of any material developments. Our experienced traders provide an exclusive personal service: we do not use "quote machines" for automated trading. Moreover, positions taken in your stock are held as overnight positions and are not closed out at the end of trading - without shifting risk to your company. This enables us to keep a close eye on market movements and gain a "feeling" for your stock in order to allow for the appropriate support in any market situation.
