Notes
CBSL table4.02, 'Sectoral Credit' sheet: commercial banks' outstanding loans and advances to the private sector, monthly Survey (from April 2025). Each file vintage holds only a rolling ~12-month window; stitched across every vintage on disk, newest wins where two overlap. 'of which,' sub-items are a partial breakdown of their parent, not exhaustive - only the four top-level sectors (Agriculture and Fishing, Industry, Services, Personal Loans and Advances) sum to the Total; see checks.
