Mr Oliver Szabries, who has so far held a dual function as member of the management board of Tradegate Exchange and as sole member of the executive board of Börse Berlin AG, has not extended his management contract with Tradegate Exchange GmbH beyond 31 October 2020 at his own request and by mutual agreement in order to take up new professional challenges.
