Securities Finance Q1 2025, Webinar Slides
In Q1 2025, markets experienced a notable shift in investor behaviour, leading to a year-on-year increase in securities lending revenues as market volatility intensified. March alone saw securities lending revenues rise to $1,087M, reflecting a 3% YoY increase, with Asian equities and ETFs emerging as standout asset classes, generating impressive revenue growth of 34% and 108% YoY, respectively. This trend was seen throughout the quarter, where total securities lending revenues reached $2,892M, up 5% YoY. The quarterly data underscores how the movement in global investment trends has favourably impacted Asian markets, driving substantial increases in both monthly and quarterly revenues. As we head into Q2, and uncertainty grows, securities lending activity is likely to continue to reflect investor sentiment through the borrowing of thematic ETFs and tariff impacted stocks.
