Market Link Guide - Slovenia
The OneClearstream service level provides clients with a single point of access to all T2S markets with comprehensive instruments coverage. This is complemented by full harmonisation of asset services and connectivity channels between CBF, CBL and LuxCSD.
CBL and LuxCSD are using CBF as single gateway into T2S markets, allowing seamless transfer between CSD and ICSD counterparties.
This Market Link Guide represents Clearstream’s efforts to streamline our custody network and improve our asset servicing and collateral management services in the new T2S environment. The service description is valid for CBF, CBL and LuxCSD clients, unless otherwise highlighted in the documentation.
