CTS Powers Modern Brokerage Operations at Raiffeisen Bank Romania
Raiffeisen Bank Romania (Raiffeisen Bank S.A.) selected the CTS platform from CTS TRADE IT as the core technology for its securities services operations, marking a strategic step in modernizing its capital markets infrastructure.
Raiffeisen Bank Romania chose CTS TRADE IT’s solution to deliver a robust, scalable back-office system for handling equities, investment funds, certificates, bonds, structured products and related post-trade processing.
Following this successful implementation, Raiffeisen Bank Romania has relaunched its brokerage services on the Bucharest Stock Exchange (BVB) and is now an active trading participant in the exchange’s system. Official press announcements from both Raiffeisen Bank and the Bucharest Stock Exchange note that the bank has returned as a trading member and reactivated direct access to regulated markets for its clients, including Romanian and international securities trading.
Since December 2025, clients of Raiffeisen Private Banking have been able to trade listed shares on the BVB and on major European and U.S. markets in multiple currencies. Raiffeisen Bank, in cooperation with CTS TRADE IT, also plans to launch a digital investment interface in 2026, enabling customers to open investment accounts and trade securities directly via mobile devices, supported by the underlying CTS infrastructure.
The CTS solution integrates with the bank’s systems and capital markets infrastructure, automating key processes such as account onboarding, order routing, trade confirmation, settlement and reporting — significantly enhancing operational efficiency and aligning with modern market standards.
