Objectives
This session will assess how the deployment of DLT-based solutions and the transition to T+1 settlement are progressing in the European post-trading space, and how these developments are contributing to the objectives of the SIU. It will also examine the remaining challenges and whether additional measures or guidance are needed beyond the actions currently underway.
Points of discussion
- DLT uptake in securities post-trading
How is the use of DLT progressing in the securities post-trading environment, what are the realistic medium-term prospects for its broader adoption, and how might it contribute to the objectives of the SIU? To what extent does the current EU policy framework including the Market Integration Package (MIP) create the conditions for a scaling of DLT-based post-trading solutions? Are remaining challenges, notably regarding settlement assets, being adequately addressed? - T+1 settlement: impact, state of play and next steps
What impact is T+1 expected to have on post-trade process efficiency and resilience across European securities markets? Is the EU on track for a successful transition to T+1 settlement by October 2027? What key operational, technical, and regulatory challenges still need to be addressed?
