About Frankfurt

Frankfurt am Main is Germany's financial capital, home to the European Central Bank, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and many international banks. Its airport is a major European hub, and the city also hosts large trade fairs, including the Frankfurt Book Fair.

Germany uses Central European Time, UTC+1, and Central European Summer Time, UTC+2, in summer. Frankfurt is therefore one hour ahead of London and shares its time with Paris, Amsterdam and Milan. The Xetra trading day runs from 9am to 5:30pm local time, which overlaps the London session for most of its hours.
