Euronext Launches Euronext ETF Europe
Euronext has launched Euronext ETF Europe. It’s a new platform to simplify and unify ETF trading across European markets. It brings together listing, trading, clearing, and settlement in one place.
What is Euronext ETF Europe?
Euronext ETF Europe is a dedicated marketplace for exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and exchange-traded products (ETPs). It provides an integrated framework that covers listing, trading, clearing, and settlement. The platform connects issuers, brokers, custodians, and investors in a single ecosystem.
Benefits for Investors
Investors get transparent and cost-effective access to ETFs from across Europe. They can choose from multiple products listed on a single platform. Liquidity is deeper because orders consolidate in one order book. Price visibility improves. It helps investors trade with narrower spreads and more competitive rates.
Advantages for Issuers
Issuers can list their ETF once and reach all Euronext markets, avoiding multiple registrations. Administrative tasks and regulatory duplication reduce significantly. It speeds up the process of bringing new products to market and expands distribution reach. Issuers also have the flexibility to cover multiple asset classes, follow different benchmarks, and offer ETFs in various currency denominations to match investor demand across regions.
Benefits for Trading Members and Brokers
Trading members and brokers benefit from a harmonised membership model and a unified infrastructure. They access the entire ETF range available on Euronext through a single system. The Optiq trading platform consolidates orders in a centralised book. It improves liquidity and price discovery. Members use one market data feed and a single connection point. That reduces complexity and increases efficiency.
Post-Trade Enhancements
All transactions clear through Euronext Clearing with optimal netting. It reduces capital requirements. Settlement of euro-denominated ETFs runs through Euronext Securities, aligned with the European Target2-Securities platform. A straight-through processing workflow and a new post-trade confirmation system make settlement faster and more reliable. Existing settlement arrangements can stay in place until September 2026. It’ll give firms time to transition smoothly.
