CNBC Europe airs European Closing Bell from 5pm to 6pm CET (4pm to 5pm GMT), and from 11am to 12pm on CNBC World in the United States. The programme is presented by Simon Hobbs. Between 4 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. it covers the last half hour of trades. At 4:30 p.m., it covers the final results from the European markets (as the major European markets are electronic, no actual "closing bell" is rung, nonetheless, there is a countdown on the CNBC Europe stack and video wall until the close of trade).

Other major segments include a daily "Guest Investor". During major European trade fairs, European Closing Bell will often feature location reports from these events.

Prior to May 2003, European Closing Bell was known as European Market Wrap. The theme music for European Closing Bell is the same one that was used by the US version of Closing Bell prior to the December 19, 2005 US relaunch. (This was also used by Europe Tonight unti March 2007, when they changed to the music used by Street Signs until December 2005).

The programme length was halved to one hour in March 2007 as part of schedule changes at the network.
