Financial Market Infrastructure refers to the systems that facilitate the clearing, settlement, and recording of financial transactions. These critical systems include payment systems, central securities depositories, central counterparties, and trade repositories. They provide the foundational framework for the efficient and secure functioning of financial markets. Their robust operation is essential for maintaining financial stability and market confidence.
