Thursday, the boss of Euronext, Stéphane Boujnah did not hide his satisfaction at having managed to complete the takeover of the Milan Stock Exchange, won in a fierce battle against Deutsche Börse and the Swiss Six Group last October.
“With the finalization of the acquisition of the Borsa Italiana group, Euronext is making concrete its ambition to build the first pan-European market infrastructure
,
”
he said.
The group in fact achieves a nice double blow: it changes dimension and develops in businesses where it was little or not present.
The pan-European operator, already at the head of the Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Dublin, Lisbon and Oslo stock exchanges, is consolidating its leadership position on the European equity market.
1,900 companies will be listed on its financial centers for a market capitalization of over 5,000 billion euros.
The Paris Stock Exchange remains Euronext's leading equity market.
On the other hand, thanks to its ancillary activities, the Italian Stock Exchange will become the main contributor.
