About the indicator

Domestic credit to the private sector by financial institutions as a percent of GDP: loans, purchases of non-equity securities, trade credit and other accounts receivable. An indicator of financial development, but of potential risk as well: growth that is too fast relative to GDP is one of the most reliable precursors of banking crises.
