Why does Europe need T2S?Why does Europe need T2S?

• Europe’s securities markets are too fragmented and inefficient.

• Europe needs a single pool of securities to stimulate competition and harmonisation.

• There is no other realistic Europe-wide approach to creating this single pool.

Making Europe a better place to invest and trade (in line with the Lisbon agenda)

• T2S will be a single IT platform enabling settlement of securities in central bank money in the euro area/EU/EEA.

• CSDs will delocalise their securities accounts to T2S, which will perform the processing of their settlement instructions on these accounts.

• CSDs will keep their customer base and continue to perform non-settlement related functions (e.g. issuance, corporate actions, custody, etc.).

• Settlement in commercial bank money is out of the scope of T2S
