11 Global Banks Invest £170M in LSEG’s Post Trade Solutions, Valuing Unit at £850M
Eleven major global banks have collectively acquired a 20% stake in London Stock Exchange Group's Post Trade Solutions business for £170 million, implying an £850 million valuation. The division reported £96 million in revenue and £16 million in normalized EBITDA for 2024.
The investor banks—all existing clients of LSEG's clearing services—will gain board representation and strategic influence over the unit's direction. The deal mirrors LCH's successful partnership model, reinforcing institutional confidence in post-trade infrastructure.
Concurrently, LSEG secured improved economics from SwapClear, reducing revenue-sharing obligations to founding members from 30% to 15% in 2025. This restructuring demonstrates how traditional finance institutions are optimizing back-office operations amid growing crypto integration.
