Eurex Repo saw its average outstanding volume fall by €52.4 billion in November, compared to the same time last year.
The drop meant its monthly total in all markets dropped to €148.8 billion from the €201.2 billion achieved in November 2014
In a briefing document, Eurex explained: “This negative development was mainly due to the quantitative easing policy of the European Central Bank.”
The secured money market GC Pooling’s average outstanding volume also fell to €121.5 billion from €163 billion achieved last year.
The Euro Repo market reached an average outstanding volume of €27.3 billion, down from €38.2 billion in November 2014.
Eurex’s recorded stock futures transactions equaled 4.1 million contracts.
The interest rate derivatives segment totalled 39.9 million contracts, up from 29 million last year.
This broke down to mean that the new euro-bund-future reached 13.3 million contracts, the euro-bobl-future achieved nine million contracts and the euro-schatz-future totalled 5.9 million contracts.
The three euro-BTP-futures totaled around 2.4 million contracts.
