Euroclear Sweden has improved the settlement efficiency environment
The association for Financial Markets in Europe (AFME) has conducted a case study of Euroclear Sweden which is published today. It states that Euroclear Sweden has improved the settlement efficiency environment on a scale which has not been observed in other European markets.
The report concludes that:
“One market in which there has been a more eye-catching success in addressing settlement fails is Sweden.” … “These market changes, primarily driven by a proactive CSD engaging with their users, have contributed to an improvement in the settlement efficiency environment on a scale which AFME has not observed in other European markets.”
“I am very proud of the work we have done together with the market. Our next step is to ensure that we retain the high level of settlement efficiency by looking at how we can support our financial institutions clients to optimize both securities and liquidity within their post-trade processes”, says Sandra Holmqvist, Chief Business Officer Financial Institutions, Euroclear Sweden.
