European capital markets in Q3 2020 stabilised after unprecedented monetary and fiscal policies but were dominated by an uncertain outlook as a result of the COVID-19 Crisis.
  • IPOs and new listings soared quarterly, breaking with their Q2 trend.
  • Equity market capitalisation and the number of listed companies experienced declines.
  • Equity trades had a yearly surge but a strong quarterly fall.
  • Options and futures trading suffered stark declines.
  • Securitised derivatives and ETFs turnover increased on an annualised basis but had a divergent trajectory as they decreased quarterly, owing to an exceptional Q2.
