Summary/Abstract: The leading thesis in this paper is the concept that the development of a unified institutionalized European capital market is a necessity and a mandatory condition for the successful implementation of the EU economic policy, which, however, has not been recognized as a priority by the governing institutions of the Economic Union. Using empirical research we prove that the average correlation of the indices of capital markets within the Euronext system is a bit higher and much more stable than the correlation of the chosen five stock exchanges which are not in the Euronext system. That allows for a conclusion to be made that the degree of capital market integration is higher within the Euronext system than outside it, which may be used as a powerful anti-crisis instrument.
