FRANKFURT (Reuters) – German exchange operator Deutsche Boerse said on Tuesday it posted a better-than-expected 10% rise in second-quarter net profit, helped by volatility in financial markets that generate trading revenue.
Net profit attributable to shareholders was 341 million euros ($345.19 million), up from 311 million euros a year ago, the company said. Analysts had expected a profit increase of 5.9%.
