Innovating in a highly-regulated landscape

As an open Financial Market Infrastructure (FMI), we innovate actively by developing services in close collaboration with clients. We have also embarked on a number of partnerships with market infrastructure and pioneering FinTech startups aimed at better ways of working to increase efficiency and reduce cost and risk.

Today, under increasingly heavy regulatory and compliance roadmaps, we are challenged as to how to bring the advantages of new technology into a highly-regulated landscape whilst maintaining our systemically important FMI role as the reliable and trusted business partner.

Collaboration is key.

FinTech in particular offers significant opportunities to increase efficiencies through greater collaboration and innovation, while unlocking mutual cost-savings.

Euroclear Hackathon

Each year, our Hackathon brings together people in a collaborative environment to solve challenges. It creates a safe space where we can test not only technology, program languages but also possibilities and methodologies.  

This makes it possible to stimulate an innovative mindset that can provide an unexpected step forward.  

For the 2023 edition of Euroclear Hackathon, we have come up with four new challenges, each highly relevant to the Euroclear long-term vision and strategy.
