EuroCCP is a central counterparty. Central counterparties (CCPs) give protection to both sides of a trade, providing to each party that the trade will settle at the agreed price in the event one party defaults on its obligations. Headquartered in Amsterdam, EuroCCP was formed in 2013 to provide low-cost equity clearing and settlement services throughout Europe. EuroCCP is the result of combining EuroCCP ltd. and EMCF N.V., both formed in 2007.
European Central Counterparty N.V. (EuroCCP) delivers safety and savings to trading firms through its low-cost, low-risk pan-European clearing and settlement services. EuroCCP clears equities from 19 European markets and from the US, Depositary Receipts as well as ETFs and Currency ETCs.
