T2S final wave: Impact on Clearstream Banking services - update
The attachment below has been updated to include the settlement deadlines after migration to T2S, information about the transaction formats for matching Spanish fixed income securities and confirmation that market claims and transformations will be automatically dealt with by the CSDs.
Effective
Monday 18 September 2017
the final wave of TARGET2-Securities (T2S) will be launched.
In the final wave, four Central Securities Depositories (CSDs) will change their settlement processes by outsourcing their settlement activity to T2S. Clearstream Banking S.A. (hereinafter referred to as "Clearstream Banking1") has an existing domestic link to these CSDs.
The CSDs will send securities instructions received from their participants to T2S for matching and subsequent settlement. Clearstream Banking will continue to access the CSDs via its local agents and depositories, as follows:
| Country | CSD | Type of link | Eligible securities | Services impacted by T2S final wave |
| Estonia | Estonian Central Securities Depository (EVK) | Direct link operated by AS SEB Pank, Tallinn | Debt securities and equities eligible in EVK | Settlement free of and against payment in EUR |

| Lithuania | Central Security Depository of Lithuania (CSDL) | Indirect link via AS SEB Pank, Tallinn | Debt securities and equities eligible in CSDL | Settlement free of and against payment in EUR |
