June 19, 2025 (MLN): The total deposits held by scheduled banks have moved up by 1.4% to Rs32.76 trillion in May compared to Rs32.32tr by the end of last month.

When compared to the same month of last year, banks' deposits have risen by 11.6%, compared to Rs29.35tr held in May 2024, data released by the central bank showed.

Total advances decreased by 0.9% to Rs13.02tr compared to Rs13.14tr a month ago. Meanwhile, advances increased by 7.0% from their value of Rs12.17tr from a year ago.

As a result of strong inflow of deposits and weak momentum of advances, the Advances to Deposits Ratio (ADR) dropped to 39.8%, a decrease of 90 basis points on a monthly basis and a decrease of 171 bps on a yearly basis.

This reflects persistently weak private sector demand for bank credit amid subdued economic conditions as well as government’s high demand for bank financing to meet the budget deficit.

Total investments increased by 4.3% to Rs34.63tr from last month. While compared to last year, investments rose 19.7%.

Investment to Deposit Ratio (IDR) moved up by 296bps to 105.7% compared to last month and increased by 716 bps when compared to a year ago.
