Xetra ("Exchange Electronic Trading") is a worldwide electronic securities trading system based in Frankfurt, Germany. It was created for the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and launched in November, 1997.[1] It is operated by Deutsche Börse.

The conception and the implementation of the Xetra System was carried out by Accenture and Deutsche Börse Systems, the technology division of Deutsche Börse. It is based on the Eurex system designed and built by Deutsche Börse Systems.

The Xetra system has been successfully implemented on the Irish Stock Exchange (operating as ISE Xetra),[2] the Vienna Stock Exchange,[3] the European Energy Exchange,[4] the Budapest Stock Exchange,[5] and a number of other exchanges. It will also be installed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.[6]
