BME asegura que está preparado para facilitar la conexión para la cotización dual

Bolsas y Mercados Españos (BME) has assured that it is ready to facilitate the connection for the dual listing of companies. The modification of the decree will enable one of the identified ways to invest in both markets. BME confirms it is prepared to assist the issuer and the central depository of American securities, the Depository Trust Company (DTC), and to adapt its services upon request from a company.

The Spanish market manager has always maintained that there is no technical barrier for a company to trade simultaneously in Spain and the United States. BME and the National Market Commission (CNMV) maintain continuous contact with DTC to analyze different mechanisms for dual listing, depending on the specific characteristics of each operation.

These mechanisms do not require bypassing other markets. According to BME, the modification of the decree will facilitate one of the identified ways to trade in both markets, and it will be fully operational once Iberclear completes its internal adjustments and the issuer formalizes the necessary agreements. Dual listing requires coordinating that Iberclear registers the securities in Spain and guarantees their issuance, while the DTC admits them and a transfer agent manages the shareholder records.

Market operators consider the measure positive as it will increase the liquidity of Spanish securities and expand their customer base. In the case of Ferrovial, its stock price fell slightly more than 20% since it joined the Nasdaq 100 index in December 2025.
