Bank lending to households in the Eurozone experienced a year-on-year growth of 2.6% in September 2025, marking the highest increase since March 2023, in line with expectations. This uptick indicates a sustained recovery in credit demand, bolstered by the recent policy easing measures from the European Central Bank. Additionally, lending to businesses saw an increase of 2.9%, slightly down from 3% in August. Meanwhile, the overall credit growth to the private sector remained steady at 2.8%, consistent with the previous month's figures.
