From 14 September, LSEG will make the European Equity Consolidated Tape available across select LSEG Data & Analytics products, helping customers access a consolidated view of European equity and ETF market activity through the workflows tools they already use.
Operated by EuroCTP, the tape brings together pre- and post-trade data for European equities and exchange-traded funds in a single, standardised, real-time feed. The tape will:
- Consolidate pre- and post-trade data from trading venues and Approved Publication Arrangements (APAs) into a single, standardised feed.
- Deliver a consolidated European Best Bid and Offer (EBBO) by Currency and Market of Listing and unified view of liquidity across markets.
- Act as a regulated, authoritative reference feed for EU equity trading activity.
Today, trading activity is distributed across:
- Exchanges (pre-trade liquidity and post-trade data)
- Multilateral Trading Facilities(MTFs) (pre-trade liquidity and post-trade data)
- Over-the-Counter(OTC) markets reported via APAs (post-trade data)
As a result, firms seeking a broader view of market activity may rely on multiple data sources to monitor liquidity and trading volumes across venues.
The European Equity Consolidated Tape (operated by EuroCTP) provides a consolidated real-time feed of both pre- and post-trade data from 130 European venues.
The service brings together data from trading venues and APAs into a single feed and is intended to provide users with an aggregated view of European equity market activity.
EuroCTP is pleased to welcome LSEG as a Day-1 Redistributor of Europe’s Consolidated Tape for Shares and ETFs. Through LSEG’s data & feeds distribution capabilities and integration with Workspace, the Consolidated Tape becomes accessible both to firms building the tape into their own infrastructure and to the wide base of end users who already rely on that platform for their market data.
