Amsterdam, Brussels, Lisbon, London and Paris – 6 January 2016 – Euronext, the leading exchange in the Eurozone, today announced trading volumes for December 2015.

  • The December 2015 average daily transaction value on the Euronext cash order book stood at €7,434 million (+6% compared with December 2014). Activity on ETFs remained particularly dynamic during December with an average daily transaction value at €744 million, up 47% compared to December 2014.
  • The average daily volume on equity index derivatives was down at 212,564 contracts (-20% compared with December 2014), and the average daily volume on individual equity derivatives was down at 199,215 contracts (-26% compared with December 2014). The total monthly volume on AtomX, our dedicated derivative trade capture service, reached 11,158 contracts.
  • In December 2015, the average daily volume on commodities derivatives decreased by 45% when compared to December 2014, with an average daily volume of 38,434 contracts. A slow start to the European wheat export campaign in the context of globally abundant and high-quality crops contributed to a narrow price range. The yearly ADV volume remained close to 55,900 contracts (+8% compared to 2014 YTD).
  • In December 2015, Euronext had four new listings on EnterNext SMEs that altogether raised €101 million. In addition, during December 2015, €6.4 billion was raised in corporate bonds and €5.3 billion in follow-on equity.
