Introduzione
Clearstream is a post-trading service provider owned by Deutsche Börse AG. It provides settlement and custody and other related services for securities across all asset classes. It is one of two European international central securities depositories (the second is Euroclear).
Clearstream operates securities settlement systems based in both Luxembourg and Germany, which allow securities to be stored and transferred.
Clearstream operates its International Central Securities Depository (ICSD) from Luxembourg. It is also a joint partner of the Luxembourg Central Securities Depository (CSD) LuxCSD together with the Luxembourg Central Bank. In Germany, Clearstream operates the German central depository Clearstream Banking AG. Clearstream has connections with over 50 domestic markets around the world and issues and holds Eurobonds.
In 2014, the value of assets held in custody on behalf of clients averaged € 12.2 trillion; In addition, Clearstream processed 43.65 million ICSD settlement transactions and 82.68 million CSD transactions.
Clearstream has approximately 2,500 customers in 110 countries. Clearstream accepts AML regulated central banks and lending institutions as clients. Clearstream does not accept individuals as customers and no accounts are opened in the name of an individual. Therefore, Clearstream is called the “bank for the banks”.
The entire financial system of the world is built on trust. When trading assets, both parties need to be sure that they receive their share of the transaction. Given the complexity, speed, and number of assets involved, a fast, secure and reliable third party is absolutely essential to conduct transactions.

The company also manages, stores, and manages the securities he holds on behalf of his clients. Over 300,000 domestic and international bonds, stocks, and mutual funds are currently listed with Clearstream.

As the pace of innovation in financial products accelerates and the number of types of security increases, there is an additional element of complexity that securities service providers must consider. Clearstream’s understanding of this complex area means that they can provide the highest quality service that meets the highest industry standards.
Income Processing Overview
As emission levels continue to rise, so does the volume of revenue-related events. The complexity of the product is also increasing, due primarily to innovations in the sales area, and with them the problems associated with the complexity of servicing revenue. Timeliness, accuracy, and quality of service are key requirements; and our sophisticated, all-inclusive revenue-generating package enables our highly professional teams to respond quickly to these trends and thus to the needs of our customers.
Accuracy of payment
ClearStream has a high level of payment accuracy and our revenue turnover rate continues to decline despite significant growth in payments in recent years.
Overall, the company’s average pay rate for accuracy is over 99.5% for all events, despite the ever-increasing volume, with a record return of just 0.22% in the international market last year.
Cash and banking services
Clearstream Banking Services simplify liquidity management and give customers complete control over their funds 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Getting an instant overview of cash positions and using predefined credit lines ensures maximum liquidity during periods of peak demand or unpredictable market events.
Cash and banking overview
Whether you have accounts with the Clearstream International Central Securities Depository (ICSD), the Clearstream Central Securities Depository (CSD), or both, Clearstream Cash and Banking services are designed to maximize your available liquidity and provide financing for settlements on your transactions globally. For CSD positions, central bank money is accessed through self-sustaining securities settlement. For ICSD positions, this means self-sustaining transactions; maximizing liquidity through secured credit lines and efficient use of commercial bank money; and optimizing collateral through umbrella accounts and access to central bank collateral at night. But the real value of cash and banking services lies in ensuring that liquidity flows seamlessly between ICSD and CSD environments.
