Expect more from European post-trade

Back

From fragmentation to integration  

Europe’s capital markets move forward when participants have real choice – and when that choice is supported by the scale, consolidation, and execution power needed to unlock growth. 

Fragmentation has long limited the efficiency of European post-trade, creating duplicated processes, higher costs and operational complexity.  

Markets need scale. Clients need clarity.  Capital needs efficiency.  

A structural shift in European post-trade

At Euronext Securities, we believe clients should expect more – now.  

We are building the infrastructure to deliver on this ambition.   

Euronext Securities is developing a more integrated and future-ready post-trade model that removes barriers and supports a truly European capital markets ecosystem.

The Euronext Securities model provides:

  • Broader and more efficient access to investors and markets for issuers 

  • A genuine cross-border infrastructure solution for financial intermediaries 

  • A challenger mindset that raises post-trade standards and brings real choice 

From September 2026, market participants will be able to manage activity across multiple major European markets – Belgium, France and the Netherlands – through one CSD and one securities account, alongside Euronext Securities’ existing CSDs in Denmark, Italy, Norway, Portugal and Greece. 

Its objective is clear: to give clients greater choice, efficiency, and scale, powered by a future proof infrastructure.  This approach is fully aligned with the current European regulatory framework and translates the objectives of the European Commission’s Market Infrastructure and Supervision Package into operational reality. 

This is the post-trade model that Europe needs to unlock its full potential.  

Why Euronext Securities?

Issuers can now tap into Europe’s deep liquidity pool via a smoother, more efficient route to European markets with:  

  • Simplified access to a broad European investor base through seamless domestic and cross-border connectivity. 

  • Greater clarity and efficiency throughout the issuance process 

  • More predictable timelines and operational outcomes 

This creates a reliable and scalable framework for companies looking to grow their presence in Europe’s capital markets. 

Intermediaries can benefit from modern, technology-driven infrastructure, designed to replace costly and inflexible legacy frameworks that struggle to adapt to evolving dynamic capital markets demands.  

Key features of the Euronext Securities model include:  

  • European integration, simplifying cross-border transactions through a single harmonised model across equities, ETFs, fixed income, certificates and warrants. 

  • A scalable, T2S-aligned settlement infrastructure, built for T+1 and future market evolution 

  • Standardised processes across markets to support increasing volumes and cross-border activity. 

  • Competitive and transparent pricing structures that support operational efficiency and cost discipline.
