Clearstream鈥檚 global securities financing (GSF) volume outstanding fell by 8 percent in February.
Volume dropped to 鈧�489.4 billion last month from 鈧�532.7 billion the same time last year.
Year-to-date volume also fell by 6 percent, compared to 2016. Average outstanding volume hit 鈧�492.2 billion so far this year, down from 鈧�526.3 billion.
The drop off in volume was attributed to the ongoing asset purchase programme of the European Central Bank, which was extended in December 2016 to now run until December 2017.
