Rankings

Definition

Difference in percentage points between private non-financial credit as a share of GDP and its long-run trend, estimated by the BIS with a one-sided, backward-looking Hodrick-Prescott filter. A level difference, not a percentage change.

BIS estimate. Can differ from the credit gap used by national authorities. It supports risk analysis; it is not an automatic lending or policy threshold.
