However, the Euro Repo market bucked the trend, hitting an average outstanding volume of €31.2 billion for the month, up from €26.3 billion in Áugust 2015.
Eurex Repo has endured a drop-off every month throughout 2015, compared to 2016.
The Deutsche Börse subsidiary blamed the slowdown on the quantitative easing policy of the European Central Bank.
