The ICSD issuance model is one of Clearstream’s proven solutions for ETF issuance tailored to different needs of ETF issuers, which services ETFs issued within the pan-European ICSD settlement platform. By using this model, ETF issuers, their administrators and market participants can leverage direct setup and connectivity through Clearstream, facilitating efficient issuance, trading and post-trade activity in the ICSD and CSD universes. Centralisation of securities within the ICSD infrastructure reduces costs and post-trade fragmentation.
