How far is private-sector credit growth running above inflation?
Private-sector credit growth exceeded inflation by 24.10 percentage points in 2026-06
Credit grew 28.10% while headline inflation was 4.00% in the same BoT observation month. The gap describes pace, not the quality or distribution of lending.
Why it matters: Credit growing faster than prices can support activity, but the benefit depends on where lending goes and whether borrowers can service it.
Method and limitation
Both rates come from the same Monthly Economic Review observation month. The visual compares published year-on-year rates and does not infer causality.
