The repo product has a very significant role to play in the international securities market as a whole by providing liquidity, marketability and in offering opportunities for the mitigation of credit risk. The results of the latest ICMA repo survey set the baseline figure for market size at EUR 5,379 billion.

ICMA's European Repo and Collateral Council (ERCC) is the representative body which defines best practice in the European cross-border repo market and, through its elected steering committee of market practitioners, makes contributions to public consultations.
