1 Unless otherwise specified, monthly changes in euro are presented as transactions, i.e. calculated by taking the difference between end-of-month outstanding amounts and removing the effects of revaluation adjustments, exchange rate adjustments, loan write-offs and reclassifications.

2 The annual growth rate is calculated as a percentage change in the base index of transaction-adjusted outstanding amounts over the year.
