“Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the war in Ukraine. Respect for the rule of law and international principles is the basis for our coexistence in a globalized world. As a company, we stand up for these values,” said Thomas Book, member of the Executive Board of Deutsche Börse. “That’s why we want to support the non-profit organizations that are helping those suffering in Ukraine and neighbouring countries.”

The value of the donation will be announced the following week. More information can be found here.
