TCS and Euroclear Expand Partnership to Modernise Swedish Securities Depository

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has expanded its technology partnership with Euroclear Group as part of plans to update Sweden’s Central Securities Depository (CSD), as per an exchange filing dated June 3, 2026.  

This comes under Euroclear’s wider Nordic programme, which is to bring operations in Sweden and Finland onto a common technology platform.  

The project follows earlier work carried out in Finland and represents the next stage of Euroclear’s plans to align systems and processes across the 2 markets.  

New Platform for Securities Processing 

Under the arrangement, Euroclear Sweden will adopt TCS BaNCS for Market Infrastructure along with Quartz. The systems will be used for functions such as securities registration, depository services, settlement processing, and asset servicing. 

The platform is to support operations across different asset classes. It also includes features for managing settlement activity and liquidity requirements linked to securities and cash transactions.  

Migration to European Settlement Network 

A key part of the programme involves the migration of Sweden’s market to the European Central Bank’s TARGET2-Securities (T2S) platform.  

T2S is used by several European markets for securities settlement and is intended to facilitate cross-border transactions. 

The transition will take place in phases as Euroclear works towards a unified infrastructure for its Swedish and Finnish operations.  

The company has stated that the common platform is to support regulatory compliance and processing efficiency across both markets.  

Technology to Support Market Changes 

TCS said Quartz will be used for capabilities linked to distributed ledger technology and artificial intelligence.  

These tools are expected to support areas such as tokenised assets, decentralised settlement arrangements, and operational monitoring. 

The platform also supports market standards including CSDR, SMPG, and CAJWG guidelines.  

In addition, it can operate with both ISO 15022 and ISO 20022 messaging standards, which continue to be used across financial market infrastructure.
