Case Study: Eurex Repo achieves automated rule-based master data management and improved data quality with ACTICO

Eurex Repo Rule-based Master Data Management

Eurex Repo, a leading provider of secured financing and securities‑lending markets, launched its web‑based F7 trading platform and faced the challenge of building a central, rule‑based master data management (MDM) system to feed trading with accurate, timely static data. The platform supports ~150 market participants and ~1,500 users across multiple markets and needed high data quality, rapid adaptation to regulatory and market changes, and reduced manual effort — requirements addressed using ACTICO’s business rules technology (ACTICO Rules).

Using ACTICO Rules, Eurex Repo externalized and modeled roughly 8,000 business rules (with implementation support from STABILIT), enabling graphical rule management, live rule uploads, and separation of business logic from application releases. The result was largely automated MDM, significantly improved data quality, and much greater flexibility to add baskets, currencies or segments without complex software releases; only exceptions now require manual handling. ACTICO’s solution accelerated rule changes (regularly 1–3 updates per month), reduced manual validation overhead, and reliably supplies the F7 trading system with daily, validated master data for markets with outstanding volumes in the EUR 140–150 billion range (record EUR 250 billion).
