Confirmation of the go-live of Euronext’s new settlement model in September 2026
Euronext confirms that, starting 21 September 2026, Euronext Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris will designate Euronext Securities as the default Central Securities Depository (CSD) for the settlement of equity transactions and ETP euro transactions executed on these markets.
This marks an important milestone in the delivery of one of the most relevant projects of the “Innovate for Growth 2027” strategic plan, with the establishment of the new and innovative settlement model on Euronext markets.
With this model, for the first time in Europe, clients will have the ability to manage multiple European equity and ETP markets in one unique European CSD, Euronext Securities, and therefore benefit from simplicity, efficiency and economies of scale.
This model will also offer clients a genuine choice and the advantages of competition: starting 21 September 2026, clients will be able to use either Euronext Securities or Clearstream Europe AG, Euroclear Bank, Euroclear Belgium, Euroclear France and Euroclear Nederland as alternative CSDs if they wish to do so.
With this confirmation, Euronext reaffirms its industrial commitment to advancing a more competitive and more consolidated post-trade infrastructure to support the growth of European capital markets, in line with the objectives of the Market Infrastructure and Supervision Package promoted by the European Commission.
