The Association is governed by the General Meeting of its members, the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee. The association governance is specified in the "Articles of the Association" and its by-laws.[3] While the General Meeting gathers the representatives of the ECSDA Members, the Board Directors are appointed in a personal capacity.

The association holds regular expert discussions and conferences. In 2018, ECSDA held a "Conference on new technology for Financial Market Infrastructures".[4] In 2019, ECSDA held a conference “Towards the Financial Market Infrastructures of Tomorrow”.[5]
