Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming financial services at unprecedented speed. At Euroclear, we embrace this shift with a clear mission: to become a leading, trusted AI‑augmented financial market infrastructure.
Artificial intelligence
While AI has become a general‑purpose technology reshaping all domains at an unprecedented pace – especially across financial services – we remain clear‑eyed about the challenges of AI maturity and the associated risks. That’s why we’ve built a strong governance and readiness framework to ensure trust, resilience and compliance as we scale AI across Euroclear.
We are building on our past experience and existing AI capabilities, scaling them for enterprise‑wide adoption and expanding the focus from business improvements into technology efficiency, client experience and revenue growth.
We are strengthening our data and AI foundations by leveraging our Microsoft partnership and our extended ecosystem of global service integrators and research & development partners. At the same time, we are embedding responsible AI practices across the organisation and preparing our people and business functions for a federated AI operating model.
AI at Euroclear is grounded in clear principles – security, compliance (including EU AI Act readiness), transparency, accountability and privacy. These are operationalised through our AI Intake & Governance process, which ensures every AI system is risk‑assessed, designed with appropriate controls and reviewed by the right governance bodies before deployment.
For our clients and partners, this means:
- confidence that AI‑enabled services meet stringent legal, regulatory and operational resilience requirements
- repeatable pathway from idea to production that reduces risk while accelerating value delivery
Trust & compliance: A governance framework aligned with EU AI Act principles ensures safe, transparent and accountable AI deployment.
Enterprise-ready infrastructure: Cloud‑enabled, scalable, secure – accelerating innovation while protecting operational resilience.
Partnership advantage: Microsoft and other global partners strengthen our foundation and amplify our capabilities.
People-centric transformation: Euroclear equips employees and business functions for an AI federated operating model, ensuring adoption with confidence.
Value-add client impact: AI solutions like EasyFocus+ directly reduce risk, cost and effort while improving settlement efficiency and client experience.
