Securities trading, clearing and settlement

Securities trading, clearing and settlement statistics provide information on the different types of pre- and post-trade infrastructures/systems in the European Union.

Data are presented in accordance with the three stages of securities transactions:

  1. Securities trading – securities exchange (SEE) statistics
  2. Securities clearing – central clearing counterparty (CCP) statistics
  3. Securities settlement – central securities depository (CSD) statistics

Reporting requirements were revised in 2005 and 2006, and the new methodologies could not be applied to earlier years. Consequently, data on central securities depositories cover the period from 2005 onwards. Data on securities exchanges and central clearing counterparties cover the period from 2006 onwards. Data on securities exchanges cover the period from 2006 up to 2018. Afterwards the production of securities exchanges data has been discontinued.
