Both rates are IMF-harmonised national averages — same source, same country, no conversion.

Loan and deposit mixes differ by country, so treat close values as similar rather than identical.

How to read this figure

Our own calculation: the bank lending rate minus the bank deposit rate, both IMF-harmonised. It is a rough measure of what the banking system takes between savers and borrowers — wide spreads often mean thin competition or high risk premiums. The underlying loan and deposit mixes differ by country, so treat close values as similar rather than identical.
