Clearstream is responsible for the management, safekeeping/custody and administration of securities (assets) under custody. Services include income and redemption payments, [[corporate actions]] as well as tax and [[proxy voting]].

The majority of securities safekept by Clearstream are [[Settlement (finance)#Immobilisation|immobilised]]. Securities are reflected in book-entry form in the accounts of customers at Clearstream regardless of whether they are held in physical or dematerialised form. This means that they are no longer represented by physical certificates, but instead by data entered into the Clearstream systems.
