Over August 2014 the M3 broad monetary aggregate increased by LTL 244.6 million, and its annual growth rate was 3.6 per cent at the end of the month. The major impact on the increase in M3 stemmed from an increase in overnight deposits (LTL 575.7 million) and deposits redeemable at notice of up to 3 months (LTL 17.5 million), while it was reduced by a fall in currency in circulation (LTL 308.4 million), deposits with agreed maturity of up to 2 years (LTL 21.8 million) and debt securities up to 2 years (LTL 18.5 million). Domestic credit grew by LTL 183.7 million over the month as a result of an increase in credit to other residents by LTL 369.6 million and a fall in credit to general government by LTL 185.9 million. MFIs' net external assets contracted by LTL 2.4 million in August and amounted to LTL 12.9 billion.
