Euronext, the European stock and derivatives exchange, reported a 0.8% increase in revenues for 2001 and said that it expected synergies from the integration of its technology platforms would become evident in 2002.

The company's net profits at €127.3m ($111.8m) were marginally higher than the €127m reported last year, despite the boom in new listings in 2000 having evaporated in 2001. The volume of stock trades decreased 9.3% from 2000 levels to €177.4m, but revenues from clearing operations increased 2.2% to €172.8m and income from derivatives trading rose 2.5% to €84.3m.
