The value of repo transactions with the Bank of Russia conducted via the NSD’s collateral management services reached RUB 8.1 trillion (US$126 billion) during the same period.

This means that Federal Treasury business accounted for a third of the value of all repo transactions conducted through the NSD’s collateral management services

The value of Bank of Russia repo transactions decreased from RUB 11.6 trillion (US$180 billion) in Q3 2014 to RUB 8.1 trillion (US$126 billion) in Q3 2015.

But the number of Bank of Russia repo transactions climbed year-over-year, from 1,879 to 2,284, an increase of 21.6 percent.
