Euronext has released a public press, reaffirming its position as the leading equity listing venue in Europe, welcoming 53 new companies in 2024 and raising €3.9 billion in new capital. This represents a 55% increase from 2023, with a total market capitalization of €27 billion.

Stéphane Boujnah, CEO of Euronext, praised the exchange's performance: "In 2024, Euronext has once again been the leading listing venue in Europe. Our single liquidity pool and central trading platform have enabled companies to meet their funding needs and growth ambitions."

The exchange continued to attract both European and international companies, including major listings such as UK-based CVC Capital Partners, the largest European company to go public this year in terms of market capitalization. Euronext also attracted 11 new international companies, further solidifying its reputation as the preferred platform for global issuers.

Notably, Euronext continues to dominate in the technology sector, with over 700 tech companies listed. Nearly 40% of new listings in 2024 were in the technology sector, which raised more than double the capital compared to 2023. Euronext also launched the Euronext Europe Tech Index, designed to track the performance of leading listed technology companies in Europe.

Additionally, the exchange remains the world leader in debt listings, with over 14,700 new bonds listed in 2024, raising over €3.5 trillion in new capital. Euronext has also maintained its position as the go-to venue for sustainable bonds, listing over 600 ESG bonds in 2024, raising more than €270 billion.
