Private Credit-to-GDP Gap (Quarterly)
Reviewed series · Credit & Debt · Quarterly · percentage points of GDP · BIS.CREDIT.GAP.Q
Published private credit-to-GDP ratio minus its one-sided Hodrick-Prescott-filtered long-run trend. Displayed in percentage points of GDP, not a percentage growth rate. BIS gaps can differ from national authorities' countercyclical-buffer gaps. This statistical measure alone is not a crisis prediction or investment recommendation. BIS statistics are freely sourced and their inclusion must not result in any additional charge to users. BIS attribution is required; resale is not permitted by SOTW's rights policy. Collection time is not the original publication timestamp. Source dimensions, unit multipliers, confidentiality and observation flags are retained. Terms: https://data.bis.org/help/legal
