Δήλωση του Stéphane Boujnah, Διευθύνοντος Συμβούλου και Πρόεδρου του Διοικητικού Συμβουλίου της Euronext
I welcome Chancellor Friedrich Merz' call for deeper and more attractive European capital markets and for more consolidation in the markets infrastructure sector, ultimately benefitting European companies.
For 25 years, Euronext has been integrating European capital markets. Today, more than 1,700 companies are listed on Euronext, representing an aggregated market capitalisation of around €6.5 trillion. Companies listed in Amsterdam, Brussels, Dublin, Lisbon, Milan, Oslo and Paris all benefit from our single liquidity pool and technology platform. If Euronext's exchange offer to acquire all ATHEX shares is successful, companies listed in Greece will also benefit from Euronext's integrated model.
Euronext has always been driven by the strong conviction that in Europe it's always possible to succeed together rather than fail separately. Euronext is ready to contribute to the next level of consolidation of markets in Europe to create a deeper liquidity pool to finance the growth of European companies.
In parallel it is urgent to address another key obstacle to the Savings and Investment Union: the divergence in regulation and supervision. Therefore, we need a decisive move towards single supervision within the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA).
