Delivering Europe via One Securities Account

We are breaking down the barriers of fragmented European securities markets with our Pan-European CSD solution: One account. One platform. One partner.

Managing assets across diverse European markets still presents significant challenges in today’s fast-paced financial markets. Fragmented market access, cross-border settlement delays, complex liquidity management and diverse regulatory requirements across different jurisdictions are just a few of the challenges facing financial services.

At Clearstream, we’re making strides to tackle these challenges. Our Pan-European CSD solution aims to transform Europe’s post-trade segment into a strategic lever for operational and capital efficiency.

Is your current operating model still the right one for your European securities business?

With harmonization of Europe’s capital markets, the Saving and Investment Union (SIU) and T+1 on the horizon, we believe that now is the right time for a reevaluation.

Our Pan-European CSD solution helps you navigate and address your key post-trade concerns:

Heterogenous infrastructure

Fragmented markets hinder seamless cross-border capital mobilization and reduce investment velocity. 

Operational
inefficiencies
