SFT Clearing Growth Cboe Clear Europe launched SFT clearing in March 2025, the first-of-its-kind CCP clearing for SFTs in European cash equities and ETFs. This creates upsell opportunities for Clearing Participants to adopt enhanced capital efficiency, risk management, and streamlined post-trade operations through automated processing and netting.

UCITS Title Model Recent collaboration on a title transfer model with pledge-back for UCITS clients signals demand for advanced asset servicing, collateral management, and streamlined settlement workflows—opening cross-sell avenues for settlement, custody integration, and documentation automation.

Regulatory Focus As a DNB and AFM-regulated CCP, the business appeals to buyers prioritizing compliance and risk controls. There is opportunity to offer KYC/AML tooling, regulatory reporting, and audit-ready dashboards to support ongoing regulatory obligations.

Pan-European Connectivity Being the most connected CCP in Europe with access to 47 venues creates a strong case for API-led connectivity, venue onboarding, and data integration services, enabling clients to expand footprints and improve operational efficiency.
