Credit and deposits see double-digit growth in 2022 Cambodia's banking and financial institutions posted a solid growth last year despite regional and global economic uncertainty and inflationary pressures. Credit to private sector increased by 21%, while customer deposits rose 11.3%, the National Bank of Cambodia said in its "Macroeconomic and Banking Sector Development in 2022 and Outlook for 2023". "Prudential regulations, which were relaxed during the pandemic to relieve financial burden of borrowers and maintain credit intermediation, have been strengthened gradually to be in line with domestic economic recovery and the NBC exit strategy to safeguard financial stability and rebuild a policy buffer for future needs", the NBC said. "The loan restructuring policy was withdrawn at the end of Jun 2022, and the amount of restructured loans declined from 10.5% to only 5% of total credit", the central bank added.
