Why it matters
Credit is the fuel of spending and investment. Strong lending growth means households and companies are confident and that monetary policy is passing through; a credit slowdown often precedes a slowdown in activity. In China, new loans and total social financing are among the most watched signs of stimulus.
How it is calculated
Banks report the outstanding stock of loans to the central bank; the release shows the change over the month or the growth from a year earlier.
What changes mean
- Rising credit growth supports the growth outlook and the Indonesian rupiah.
- A sudden drop in lending can signal tighter bank standards or weak demand.
- Compare with interest rates: credit should slow after hikes; if it does not, more tightening may follow.
Higher than expected: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the Indonesian rupiah and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Lower than expected: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the Indonesian rupiah tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
A short history
Credit cycles were described by economists such as Hyman Minsky; after the 2008 financial crisis regulators began to track credit growth closely as an early warning of booms and busts.
