It’s all about IT
Advanced trading systems capable of executing more than 100,000 transactions per day are at the core of Saxo Bank’s IT infrastructure. In addition to client transactions, the systems update thousands of live prices every second, while also monitoring tens of thousands of open orders. To control this vast amount of daily data traffic from around the world Saxo Bank operates two data centres, both located in Denmark. The Bank has invested more than DKK 1.5 billion in IT over the last several years, and so as to ensure that its technology and software are always state-of-the-art, Saxo Bank employs over 300 IT specialists in Copenhagen, London and Delhi, India.
