The Bank of Greece (ΤτΕ) reports that demand for loans from both businesses and households remained unchanged in the second quarter of 2026. This indicates a stable economic environment with no significant shifts in borrowing behavior. Specifically, lending criteria for mortgages and consumer loans remained consistent. The report suggests sustained, but not growing, credit activity within the Greek economy. This lack of change may signal broader economic stagnation or a period of cautious optimism among borrowers and lenders alike. Further analysis is needed to determine the underlying reasons for this stability and its potential impact on future economic growth. The bank will continue monitoring loan demand and credit conditions in the coming quarters.
