With Liechtensteinische Landesbank AG in June 2024 and St.Galler Kantonalbank in September 2024, two more customers have successfully switched from our previous trading system GLOX to MAX. In the meantime, the majority of our customers have already migrated.
"The migration to MAX is always carried out in close cooperation with the customer, as a smooth transition is very important to us. The growing number of MAX customers also creates further synergies within our network, allowing us to continuously expand the MAX Services for all of our customers", says George Macdonald, CEO MACD.
More information about MAX and all services:
At the end of July, we implemented a connection to the fund platform of our partner ifsam for our customer Dreyfus Sons & Co Ltd, Banquiers. Bank Dreyfus has now been successfully processing its fund orders via this platform for almost two months.
"The speed of trading and efficiency are increasing enormously in this area. We are delighted to have embarked on this path with our long-standing partners ifsam and MACD", says Matthias Lötscher, Head of Trading Dreyfus Sons & Co Ltd, Banquiers.
Ifsam is one of the leading B2B fund trading platforms and participates in the MACD Broker Program, which offers MACD customers a number of advantages, for example in testing and maintenance.
"We are very pleased to be a part of the MACD Broker Program, which allows us to offer our mutual clients additional sustainable and attractive services around order processing. We particularly value the constructive and efficient collaboration with MACD", explains Jean-Luc Lanners, Executive Director of ifsam.

Our team has grown again!
On 1 August 2024, Konrad Nickelt started his apprenticeship as Computer Specialist for System Integration at our location in Aachen, Germany.
Marcel Becker has been supporting our TAM team at Urdorf, Switzerland, as Junior Technical Account Manager since 1 September 2024.
At the beginning of June, colleagues from our locations in Urdorf, Switzerland and Aachen, Germany spent a weekend together in Karlsruhe. The two days were packed with great activities, including a creative team game and a tour of Karlsruhe Palace. Of course, there was also plenty of delicious food and drinks offered as well as much time to just talk with each other.
This year we have a special anniversary to celebrate: Lucas Fowler, Head of Software Engineering is looking back on 25 years at MACD. He has been with the company since 1999 - the year the MACD site in Aachen, Germany, was founded - and built up the development department together with George Macdonald, CEO at MACD. This also included the development of the MACD trading systems GLOX and MAX.
Ungefähr die Hälfte unserer Mitarbeitenden ist mehr als zehn Jahre bei MACD beschäftigt, dreizehn davon bereits seit mehr als 15 Jahren. Wir haben sie gefragt: Was macht die Arbeit bei MACD für euch aus? Unter anderem wurden die Flexibilität, grosszügige Home-Office Regelung und interessante Aufgaben genannt.
