4.30 p.m. | Panel II What does the future look like for CSDs in Europe? The traditional model of CSDs as national utilities, largely protected from competition, is already being challenged today. By 2020, with the introduction of T2S and the new European regulatory framework, this model will probably have evolved. The discussants will consider: i) how the European model might evolve; ii) how far competition can go in the post-trade industry; iii) whether the future will see competition between CSDs; iv) whether the post-trade industry will be organised in “silos”; and v) whether there is a need to move towards a single European CSD.

9 a.m. | Opening remarks Peter Praet, member of the Executive Board of the ECB Watch video |
9.15 a.m. | Panel III Will it be possible to bring settlement prices in Europe down to US levels? The main objective of T2S is to reduce settlement prices within Europe. But the T2S fee is only one component of CSD fees; and those fees, in turn, are only one component of the fee ultimately paid by end-investors. Today, there is still a large gap between fees paid in Europe and the United States.Will T2S and the competition it creates be sufficient to significantly reduce or even eliminate this gap by 2020?

11.15 a.m. | Panel IV How likely is it that the concept of a multi-currency securities settlement platform will spread beyond Europe’s borders? T2S has evolved from being a multi-country securities settlement system in euro into a multi-currency securities settlement system for Europe. Other regions of the world are also looking towards deeper economic and financial integration, with or without the adoption of a common currency. Does the T2S concept have a future outside Europe?

2 p.m. | Panel V Will there be greater integration among the world’s major CSDs? The main objective of T2S is to reduce the cost of cross-border securities settlement within Europe.With increasing global financial integration, this objective may be taken on at global level.

How will multi-currency/ multi-country systems like T2S be regulated? How can the financial stability concerns be addressed? Do multi-currency/multi-country systems require greater harmonisation?
