Consultancy services & project management

CKC SERVICES offers strategic and operational support in the banking and stock exchange sectors. The service focuses on project management tasks in relation to securities and derivatives trading, as well as in information technology.

Hi, my name is
Christian Klapproth.

As a certified banker, securities and derivatives trader and former Managing Director of two OTC trading platforms I can offer more than 25 years of experience at the management level in the banking and exchange industry.

My work focuses, besides technical and substantive requirements, on constructive and results-oriented collaboration with the persons involved, often as neutral consultant and intermediary. This coaching approach is based on the experience that all technical issues and challenges are finally related to people and their needs.

In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view on close things.

Securities and derivatives trading

Since 2009, I have been working as a self-employed management consultant.

My client range covers, inter alias, Group Deutsche Bourse, icubic AG, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, the German finance agency, MTS, as well as multiple consulting assignments in Vietnam, on behalf of the GIZ, for the Hanoi stock exchange, the local Ministry of finance and the State Securities Commission.

In 2014, I extended my field of activity to offer support in the IT environment. Since then, working as an external project manager of a subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, I managed the introduction of MS Windows 7 with the parallel installation of a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), the commissioning of a project management software, the implementation of a monthly IT reporting to the Executive Board, updating the Java runtime environments and the Oracle database versions and the successful handling of numerous audit findings for the IT operations of the securities clearing firm.
