Banks’ lending to private sector drops by N10trn in 7 months








原文原文 / Original Text

Credit to Nigeria’s private sector declined by about N10.3 trillion over seven months, falling from N93.74 trillion in January to N83.43 trillion as of July this year, according to the money and credit statistics data reviewed by Daily Trust.

The figures showed significant fluctuations in credit levels during the seven-month period, highlighting changes in lending activity within the economy.

Daily Trust reports that the CPS includes loans, trade credits and other account receivables and supports provided by banks to the private sector within a period. 

At the beginning of the year in January, credit to the private sector stood at N93.74 trillion. It rose to N94.6 trillion in February.

The figure has however declined to N83.43 trillion as of July 2026, representing a reduction of N10.31 trillion, or about 11 per cent year-to-date, as the data by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) showed.

The contraction means that credit available to private-sector businesses and other borrowers fell substantially within the period, potentially putting pressure on companies that depend on bank financing to fund working capital, expansion and investment.

The data also showed that the decline was not uniform throughout the seven months. From January 2026 when it started with N93.74 trillion and rose to N94.61 trillion in the subsequent month, the data has seen a significant contraction.

From February, it came down to N80.5 trillion in April, went up to N81.04 in May; N83.2 trillion in June and 83.4 trillion in July.
