  • In line with global trends, risks related to domestic commercial real estate lending continue to deserve special attention.
  • The credit market is characterised by dual trends: lending to households picked up significantly, while corporate credit growth decelerated further during the year.
  • The sector would remain stable even in a less favourable economic environment than expected.
