BNP Paribas’ securities services revenues rose by 5.8 per cent in Q3 2021 compared to the same period prior due to the increase in average assets, favourable market trends, the onboarding of new clients, and the increase in transaction volumes.
The Q3 2021 results also revealed that volumes remain at record levels. Average assets stood at €14.7 trillion, which marks an increase of 19.3 per cent compared to Q3 2020. BNP Paribas say this was driven by market performances and the onboarding of new clients.
Meanwhile, assets under custody came in at €12.273 trillion representing an increase of 21.6 per cent compared to the same period last year.
BNP Paribas also noted an increase in transaction volumes, which were up 14.1 per cent compared to Q3 2020.
Further highlights from the report showed that overall revenue was up 4.7 per cent compared to Q3 2020. This also marked an increase of 4.6 per cent compared to Q3 2019.

On the strength of its distinctive model, BNP Paribas continues to accelerate the development of its activities and to invest at the service of clients and the economy.”
