For years, European financial markets struggled with inconsistent and costly access to data scattered across dozens of countries. EuroCTP, a joint venture owned by 16 exchange groups, selected EPAM to design the technical backbone required to aggregate pre- and post-trade data under strict regulatory mandates. The project involved building a greenfield, cloud-native architecture capable of managing high-volume, low-latency streams while ensuring compliance with European financial standards.

EPAM powers EU’s first consolidated tape for equities
The European Union has launched its inaugural consolidated tape for shares and ETFs, relying on a cloud-native infrastructure engineered by EPAM Systems. Operational since September 14, 2026, the platform aims to dismantle decades of data fragmentation across 130 trading venues, providing investors with a unified, real-time stream of market information.
EPAM’s delivery included the deployment of high-performance data processing mechanisms utilizing TimeBase technology and custom messaging middleware. Beyond the core data layer, the firm developed client-facing portals and outbound data access points using the FIX standard in SBE. According to EuroCTP CEO Eglantine Desautel, the partnership required a blend of technical precision and proactive governance to bring the live service to market. The platform now operates under the supervision of ESMA, serving as a centralized hub for market transparency across all 27 EU member states.
