agree Clair Pickworth : yes I usuallly stick to the terms on Euronext's own website

agree Sylvia Smith : if that is what is on their own site (although I also would prefer "segment")!

yes - I guess that's how some terms are first coined - by a bad translation! But best to stick to their terminology...

disagree rkillings : Marché Libre is the *name* of the segment; leave it in French, along with Premier Marché and Second Marché. Explain if necessary, but do not translate.
