Abstract

Repo markets play a vital role in the U.S. financial system. In this three-part series, we examine who participates in these markets, what trade-offs influence how different repo segments are structured, and why repos matter for monetary policy. Today’s post introduces repo transactions, focusing on the major private-sector participants and why they engage in these markets.
