Repo average daily volume (ADV) traded on the Tradeweb platform jumped 4 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to US$821.9 billion for October.
According to the firm, the strong global repo ADV was supported by increased client participation across the platform YoY.
In the US, growth was driven by higher outstanding US Treasury balances compared to October 2025.
Additionally, balances in the Federal Reserve’s reverse repo facility (RRP) remained close to zero for the whole month.
In Europe, repo activity remained resilient against a backdrop of ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and evolving interest rate expectations, as the European Central Bank held policy rates steady in October following September’s increase.
