Most of these applications are offered in the D3 pricing engine for FX Swaps, NDFs and Forwards as well as the DIGITEC / 360T Swaps Data Feed (SDF).

Peer Joost, Chief Operating Officer at DIGITEC, said: “I am thrilled about this new adventure and I’m looking forward to creating even more best-in-class products and services together with our outstanding team of experts here at DIGITEC.

The firm plans to expand D3’s customer base from tier 2 to tier 3 and regional banks, offering them its scalable SaaS solution with simplified setup, maintenance, and costs. D3 is a leading price engine in the Foreign Exchange and Money Market, with customers among the top 100 global acting banks.
