Euroclear is proud to announce that its Collateral Highway has surpassed the €2 trillion mark in mobilised collateral. This significant achievement underscores Euroclear’s commitment to enhancing liquidity and efficiency in the global financial markets.

Launched in 2012, the Collateral Highway was designed to address the growing demand for high-quality collateral by providing an open architecture infrastructure for managing collateral. Over the years, it has evolved into a critical component of the financial ecosystem, offering seamless and secure mobilisation of collateral across borders, asset classes and exposure types.

The €2 trillion milestone reflects the platform’s widespread adoption and the trust placed in Euroclear’s Collateral Highway by its clients. By facilitating the swift and secure movement of collateral, the Collateral Highway has become an indispensable tool for financial institutions aiming to optimise their collateral management strategies.

Sebastien Danloy, Chief Business Officer Euroclear: “We’re proud to achieve this €2 trillion milestone with market support and are committed to further growth through a multi-year investment plan. Our strategy will transform the Collateral Highway, setting new standards in client experience, service excellence, innovation and resilience. A robust collateral infrastructure is also essential on our journey to enhance liquidity in European capital markets and ultimately drive sustainable economic growth.”
