Mid-Year update: Advancing our Nordic transformation
At the midpoint of 2026, Euroclear Sweden and Finland have made strong progress in strengthening our role at the heart of Nordic financial markets. Our Nordic strategy is now firmly in execution.
We are building a truly integrated Nordic model that delivers value today and creates a strong platform for future growth. Finland’s successful migration to TARGET2-Securities provides a strong foundation for the next phases of our transformation.
From strategy to execution
The Nordic Transformation remains our top priority. Closer collaboration, a more aligned operating model, and stronger leadership integration are enabling faster decisions and more consistent delivery.
Our ambition is clear: to become the preferred Nordic CSD through
- seamless cross-border client experience
- harmonised processes and services
- greater efficiency and scalability
We continue to progress step by step, balancing transformation with stability.
Creating value across borders
As clients increasingly operate across markets, our focus is on connecting markets, simplifying cross-border activity, and enhancing data and insights.
High-quality ownership data remains at the core of our value. As the trusted “golden source” of ownership information, we serve both companies and the wider market by providing reliable, transparent insight into ownership structures.
We continue to strengthen our Investor Relations services across the full company lifecycle – from supporting unlisted companies entering the market, to listed companies engaging their shareholders, and further to enabling transparency and insight at a broader societal level. Through this, we enhance both market transparency and the overall client experience.
Operating in an evolving environment
Amid geopolitical, regulatory, and technological change, resilience and preparedness are critical. Our role is to ensure safe and efficient post-trade processes while enabling innovation responsibly.
Moving forward
In the second half of the year, we will continue to:
- advance Nordic strategy related enhancements
- strengthen market convergence
- maintain a stable and resilient daily operations environment
Our progress is driven by strong collaboration across markets, teams, clients, and partners.
Thank you for your continued trust. We look forward to sharing the next steps of our Nordic journey and growth strategy at PostTrade 360 in Stockholm this September – we hope to see you there.
Warm regards,
Hanna Vainio
CEO, Euroclear Sweden & Finland
