According to these figures, credit to the private sector during this period reached Rs.608.5 billion which is 29.4% higher than last year’s advances worth Rs.470.3 billion.

Within the private sector, credit to conventional banking branches was nearly Rs.422 billion, credit to Islamic Banks was Rs.83 billion while credit to Islamic Branches of conventional banks was Rs.103.5 billion.

On the other hand, credit to Public Sector Enterprises (PSE’s) during the period stood at Rs.311.4billion, greater by 79% of credit to PSE’s recorded last year.
