Clearstream: Study: TARGET2-Securities Has Potential To Reduce Capital Shortfall Under Basel III Rules By EUR 33 Bn - T2S Has Potential To Offer European Banks 11 Percent In Capital Savings Of The OECD’s Projected EUR 295 Bn Capital Shortfall In The Eurozone - Reduced Custody Risk And Enhanced Collateral Mobility Materialize As Additional T2S Benefits - Capital Efficiency Provides Another Good Reason To Start Early Adaptation To T2S

These capital savings would be via reduced liquidity consumption, according to a study undertaken by Clearstream and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) that has now been released. Additional T2S benefits identified are reduced risk in the custody chain and enhanced collateral mobility to meet other new regulatory requirements designed to make the financial services sector more robust. These benefits would be on top of the efficiency gains and cost savings associated with lower settlement fees and harmonised post-trade processes already expected from the introduction of T2S.
