European Central Bank — Central Counterparty Clearing Statistics (CCP)
Central Counterparty Clearing Statistics (CCP) is an official time-series dataset published by the European Central Bank via the ECB Data Portal, distributed as the CCP dataflow over the SDMX 2.1 REST API. A single endpoint delivers data in SDMX-ML (XML), CSV, or JSON formats, with series selectable through key paths and refinable using startPeriod, endPeriod, and lastNObservations filters. The same series can also be browsed and charted interactively on the ECB Data Portal, supporting analysis of central counterparty clearing activity across the euro area.Central Counterparty Clearing Statistics (CCP) — official time series from the European Central Bank Data Portal, published as the CCP dataflow over SDMX 2.1 REST.
