4 About TARGET2-Securities TARGET2-Securities (T2S) is an EU harmonization initiative of the European Central Bank (ECB), owned and operated by the Eurosystem, with a close involvement of all relevant stakeholders in the governance framework. The objective of T2S is to harmonise post-trade processes for domestic and cross-border transactions by centralizing settlement on a single pan-european Settlement Platform and enable the settlement of securities in Central Bank Money (CeBM) EUR. The standardisation shall render cross-border settlement more efficient. Domestic CSDs will delocalize their settlement functions to the T2S platform, where final settlement will take place. While the settlement function will be commoditized, value added asset services will become a key differentiating factor. The implementation of T2S will significantly reshape the post-trade infrastructure in Europe, affecting a wide variety of market players. 4

6 Benefits of T2S Today s post-trading environment is highly fragmented across Europe. Post-trade harmonization is a key objective of T2S. T2S will introduce a single set of rules and standards and therefore reduce the complexity of the current market structure. By harmonizing areas of post-trade activities, T2S can reach its full potential and bring further benefits to European markets: Competition and business benefits: at present CSDs often operate in monopolistic national environments with ample room for increased competition. Safety benefits: in today's environment, reducing counterparty risk and risk on the settlement agent is an important approach. T2S will reduce this by only settling in Central Bank Money (CeBM) the safest settlement asset. Operational efficiency benefits: T2S is designed to make cross-border settlement as efficient as domestic settlement and therefore immediately increases the operational efficiency of its users. 6

7 T2S In line with our Swiss Value Chain Strategy For existing customers Provide seamless access to T2S markets and CeBM settlement Minimise both technical and operational impact for clients Develop existing high value-add service proposition further, above average service excellence, competitive pricing For new large Broker Dealers/Investment Banks/Wealth Managers Build on existing strengths and provide tailored T2S solutions to meet sophisticated client needs: T2S-connectivity models Cash & Securities account models Account Operator facilities Provide easy access to international collateral pools and Swiss National Bank s multi-currency Repo facilities 7
