Deutsche Börse Readiness Newsflash

With this Newsflash, we announce the introduction of the next Member Section enhancement with Member Section Release October 2026, which will be available as of Wednesday, 7 October 2026.

A new regional jurisdiction field has been added to the Trading Location form. This enhancement ensures full alignment with local regulatory parameters while streamlining the registration and verification process.
 

New regional jurisdiction field in Trading Location form for local regulatory alignment

To reflect distinct regional regulatory frameworks across various jurisdictions, a new mandatory field has been introduced in the application form for the registration of a new Trading Location.

What is changing?

  • When submitting an application from an applicable country subject to regional regulatory oversight, applicants will now be required to select their specific region from a dedicated dropdown menu.
  • The dropdown list presents regions that meet the regulatory prerequisites for the respective application.
  • If your specific region is not listed in the available options, please select the indicated option. Once you proceed with the application, you will be asked to contact your Key Account Manager, who will assist you in reviewing the regulatory requirements for your jurisdiction.

If you have any questions or require assistance with an ongoing application, please contact your dedicated Key Account Manager or client.services@deutsche-boerse.com.

Kind regards, 
Your Client Services Team
