Industry case studies

Real analytics problems solved across BI, automation and operations

These case studies focus on problems, methods and outcomes rather than repeating job descriptions.

Case Study 01

Enterprise BI & Market Intelligence Dashboards

Eurex Clearing AG · Deutsche Börse Group

Jan 2026 - Present

Power BIDAXDatabricksKPI Frameworks

Problem

Commercial and product teams needed consistent, scalable reporting across clearing members, derivatives products and liquidity trends. Static Excel reports created recurring ad-hoc requests and fragmented performance views.

Solution

Built self-service Power BI dashboards and KPI frameworks for derivatives performance across 10+ product categories. Supported the migration from static reporting into a more scalable BI setup using centralized data models.

Outcome

10+ derivatives product categories covered

Consistent KPI definitions across commercial and product teams

Reduced dependency on static reporting

Stakeholder-ready market intelligence

Case Study 02

Statistical Outlier Detection for Institutional Fee Analysis

Eurex Clearing AG · Deutsche Börse Group

Jan 2026 - Present

PythonPandasSciPyStatsmodels

Problem

Large analytical datasets required consistent anomaly detection and clearer visibility into the drivers behind unusual changes.

Solution

Developed a Python statistical outlier-detection model using SciPy and Statsmodels to surface unusual patterns and support structured driver analysis.

Outcome

Automated anomaly flagging

Repeatable statistical review process

Faster prioritisation of unusual patterns

More consistent analytical review

Case Study 03

High-Volume Reporting Automation

Deutsche Börse AG

Jul 2025 - Dec 2025

Power AutomatePower QueryVBAAI Builder

Problem

Cash market operations involved recurring manual reconciliation, file processing and reporting workflows. These tasks created manual effort, inconsistent quality checks and avoidable operational risk.

Solution

Implemented and improved automation workflows with Power Automate and AI Builder, supported high-volume reconciliation with Power Query and VBA, and created repeatable controls for recurring operational reporting.

Outcome

20+ hours saved per month

50%+ fewer manual errors

Repeatable controls for recurring reporting

Faster reconciliation and exception review

Case Study 04

Computer Vision Document Verification

Deutsche Börse AG

Jul 2025 - Dec 2025

PythonOpenCVPyMuPDF

Problem

Document quality checks required repetitive visual review for key elements and exceptions, creating avoidable manual effort and inconsistency.

Solution

Trained and optimized an AI-based computer-vision quality-control tool using Python and OpenCV to review documents and flag exceptions for manual review.

Outcome

400+ documents reviewed monthly

Automated exception flagging

Reduced repetitive manual review

More consistent quality checks

Case Study 05

Automated validation and transformation pipelines

Faster approval workflows

Independent projects

Projects built outside work to demonstrate technical execution

These projects show dashboard design, pipeline thinking, data cleaning and analytics workflow development.

Analytics Application

Interactive Analytics Dashboard

Problem

Business teams often need quick, interactive reporting without waiting for static Excel exports or manual analysis.

Solution

Built an interactive analytics application with filtering, period comparison, multiple views and export functionality.

Interactive filters by date, region, product, segment and channel

Data-Driven Portfolio Analysis

Problem

Investors need a practical way to understand how risk, return, and correlation interact across a multi-asset portfolio.

Solution

Built a Python analysis that measures annualized return and volatility, studies correlation, and simulates 20,000 portfolios to approximate the efficient frontier.

Research

Master’s Thesis: Climate Policy Reversal and Global Equity Markets

A cross-country firm-level event study of US environmental deregulation and global equity-market reactions.

Policy shocks, equity markets and event-study modelling.

Do major US climate policy reversal events generate measurable abnormal returns in global equity markets, and do firm-level characteristics or regional exposure explain differences in market reaction?

Thesis grade

929 firms

Firm sample

R + Python

Implementation

Dataset

929 firms across S&P 500, STOXX Europe 600, Nikkei 225, Hang Seng and KOSPI 200.

Method

The study estimates market-model cumulative abnormal returns and uses panel regression to compare equity return and risk responses across regions, sectors and firm characteristics.

Key takeaway

The thesis shows how policy shocks can be translated into measurable equity-market reactions using event-study methodology and panel regression.

Why it matters

The project demonstrates financial-market reasoning, data collection, event-study methodology, regression modelling and the ability to convert policy shocks into measurable market signals.
