What drives Europe’s markets? A deep dive with Euronext
PODCAST
Discover the engine behind Europe’s financial markets in this insightful conversation with Euronext’s Michael Barclay. From IPOs to clearing, learn how Euronext harmonizes diverse markets and drives trading across the continent!
In this podcast, Euronext’s Michael Barclay explains to host Andrew Wilkinson that European share trading differs from the U.S. due to a fragmented landscape of multiple nations, regulators, and exchanges. Unlike the unified U.S. market, Europe is characterszed by distinct local markets.
Barclay highlights that Euronext, formed in 2000 through the merger of Amsterdam, Brussels, and Parisian exchanges, has grown into a major aggregator. Through acquisitions like Lisbon, Oslo Børs, and Borsa Italiana, it now operates eight regulated markets to unify a cross-border trading network.
