BIS: Consolidated banking statistics
19 September 2011
The consolidated banking statistics report banks' on-balance sheet financial claims on the rest of the world, and thereby provide a measure of the risk exposures of lenders' national banking systems.
The quarterly data cover contractual lending by the head office and all its branches and subsidiaries on a worldwide consolidated basis, i.e. net of inter-office accounts. Reporting on this contractual lending on an immediate borrower basis allows the allocation of claims to the bank entity that would bear the losses as a result of default by borrowers. Total claims are broken down by maturity, sector (banks, non-bank private sector and public sector) as well as vis-à-vis country.
