About this market
Brussels serves Belgian issuers within the wider Euronext network. The BEL 20 focuses on a selection of leading shares and is narrower than the full market. A Brussels profile is therefore useful even when comparing pan-European operators: local listings, regulation and market identifiers remain distinct.
