Euronext plan to consolidate ETF trading venues sparks scepticism

March 4, 2025-Industry figures have welcomed ambitious plans by Euronext, the stock exchange group, to consolidate the thousands of exchange traded product listings scattered across its seven bourses on to one venue.

However, some are sceptical about whether Euronext can achieve its aim-particularly by the end of the September, which is believed to be its target-given the political sensitivities around the health of national stock exchanges.

Euronext has more than 3,300 ETP listings spread across the Milan, Amsterdam, Paris, Oslo, Brussels, Dublin and Lisbon exchanges, with many funds listed in several locations.

State Street said it will be responding to the SEC's letter but had no further comment at present.
