EuroCTP Partners with Exegy to Power the European Union’s First Equities Consolidated Tape
AMSTERDAM, NEW YORK – April 15, 2026 – EuroCTP, the European initiative delivering the EU’s first real-time pre- and post-trade Consolidated Tape for shares and ETFs, has selected Exegy, the global leader in high-performance market data and trading technology, as its core technology partner. Under this collaboration, Exegy’s ticker plant technology will power the data normalization and consolidation engine of the platform, contributing to a robust and resilient consolidated tape.
Following its official selection by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) in late 2025, EuroCTP is building a unified, real-time view of trading activity across more than 130 European trading venues and reporting platforms. The service, designed by EuroCTP, is targeted for a July 2026 launch and will provide the official European best bid and offer (EBBO) as well as comprehensive access to European trade data, ultimately enhancing transparency and price discovery for all market participants.
Exegy’s solution will act as the market data engine for EuroCTP’s downstream applications, integrating with its website, data lake, and real-time data distribution infrastructure. The high-capacity, FPGA-accelerated Ticker Plant is designed to consume pre-trade and post-trade data from trading venues and APAs, then compute the EBBO, ensuring the highest level of accuracy and speed for market participants.
“Exegy is honoured to provide the state-of-the-art foundation for this transformative project,” said David Taylor, CEO of Exegy. “Building an Equities consolidated tape across the fragmented European landscape requires proven experience in mission-critical roles and technology that provides the necessary level of capacity and reliable performance. By delivering purpose-built FPGA appliances and providing a comprehensive 24/7, ‘Follow the Sun’ managed service model, we are helping EuroCTP create a robust, efficient, and future-proof platform that supports the next generation of growth in European capital markets.”
“Selecting Exegy as a strategic technology partner was a critical milestone in our mission to foster transparency and equal access to market data,” said Eglantine Desautel, CEO of EuroCTP. “EuroCTP is committed to delivering a consolidated tape that serves retail and institutional investors alike. Exegy’s proven track record, building on its history of powering the Canadian Equities Consolidated Tape and supporting a large number of industry participants with high industry standards and operational resilience, is crucial to delivering on our promise of a more integrated EU Single Market.”
Building on a collaboration initiated in 2024, including the successful development of a prototype consolidated data feed featuring the novel EBBO computation, EuroCTP and Exegy are working closely together as European trading and trade publication venues are onboarded ahead of the go-live later this year.
