Euroclear saw increased client activity throughout the first half of 2015, attributing the growth of the business to favourable market conditions.

It achieved a record high of EUR 28 trillion in client assets held in safekeeping, an 11% increase year on year (YoY). 

Key results from within its first half yearly report also included a 10% growth in the value of securities transactions settlements, which reached EUR 339.3 trillion.

The overall value of funds serviced by FundSettle increased by 17% YoY, while the volume of fund transactions processed by the group exceeded 11 million, an 18% growth.

Euroclear’s Collateral Highway mobilised an average of EUR 971 billion in daily collateralised transactions, marking a 10% increase YoY.

Tim Howell, CEO of the Euroclear group attributed the provider’s successful overall report to prior investments in both traditional products and new projects, including the Collateral Highway.
