Total OTC derivatives are up from ~414 trillion to ~516 trillion for notional amounts outstanding (+24.6%) and up from 9.682 trillion to 11.140 trillion at gross market values (+15%).
Gold OTC derivatives are actually down from 0.640 trillion to 0.426 trillion for notional amounts outstanding (-33.4%) and from 56 billion to 47 billion at gross market values (-16%).
Gold OTC derivatives are still just a tiny part of total OTC derivatives (less then 0.1% for notional value and a~0.42% at gross market values)
The decline of gold OTC derivatives is probably a direct result of:
1) De-Hedging by gold producers.
2) Market participants move their business from OTC derivatives into more liquid, transparent and regulated markets such as COMEX (GC) and CBOT (ZG).
