EuroCTP (European Consolidated Tape Provider) B.V.[3] is a joint venture of 14 bourses,[4][5] intending to tender for the provision of a consolidated tape (CT) for financial trading within the European Union (EU). The selection process, arranged by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), is scheduled to be finalised in 2025.[6] This forms part of the European Commission's Capital Markets Union.[7]

For comparison, a similar electronic service, the Consolidated Tape System, has been in place in the United States since 1976. Following Brexit, the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has tabled a CT reform similar to the EU's.[8]
