Adaptation

Fabienne Eléouet, CIO : ”DBD invests heavily in proprietary IT tools. We developed our own charting software in order to update our views much faster than any other team. We build our own dynamic websites and store all our analysis in databases and are hence able to retrieve any of it in a wink, according to market action; not to mention the various possibilities of presenting the results such as the recently added web videos. I always make sure that we quickly adapt our IT to our own innovation and to our customer requirements”.

Leadership

Valérie Gastaldy, General Manager : ”Winning the game on capital markets has always been difficult, and will always be. With hindsight, it feels that “it was easier a decade ago”. In our opinion, all knowledge, all tricks, quickly spread around the planet. Once they become common, they are useless to make money. The only way out that I trust in, given my experience, is the way ahead, it is leadership”.
