Financial Conditions (June 2021)

Monetary Aggregates   For the month of June 2021, the monthly growth rates of the monetary aggregates M1B and M2 (measured on a daily average basis) were 1.21% and 0.78%, respectively, both higher than those of the previous month. The annual growth rate of M1B decreased to 17.36% mainly because of slower growth in demand deposits, whereas the annual growth rate of M2 increased to 9.23% mainly because of faster growth in bank loans and investments. For the first six months of this year, the average annual growth rates of M1B and M2 were 17.90% and 9.02%, respectively.

Loans and Investments of Financial Institutions   At the end of June 2021, the monthly growth rate of total outstanding loans and investments (measured on a cost basis) of monetary financial institutions was 1.35%, higher than that at the end of the previous month. Meanwhile, the annual growth rate increased from 7.50% at the end of the previous month to 7.93% mainly because of faster growth in bank claims on the private sector and the government.  If (1) loans and investments extended by life insurance companies and (2) non-accrual loans reclassified and bad loans written off by monetary financial institutions were all taken into account, the total outstanding loans and investments of financial institutions would show an annual growth rate of 7.38%, higher than the 6.91% registered at the end of the previous month.
