The increase in loans to non-financial corporations was much higher than the average of the previous twelve months, meanwhile the year-on-year growth of these loans remained high and amongst the highest in the euro area. Year-on-year growth in housing loans continued to strengthen in March, driven by a strong increase in new housing loans. The volume of new consumer loans has also increased, and it was the first increase in the volume of new consumer loans after October 2019. Consequently, the year-on-year decrease of these loans was slightly reduced. |

| 03/15/2022 | Monthly report on bank performance March 2022 Lending to the non-banking sector strengthened also in January, but this time mainly due to an increase in loans to non-financial corporations. Housing loans further increased, meanwhile the year-on-year lag in consumer loans remains, despite a solid volume of new business, mainly due to loan repayments from previous years. The quality of the portfolio, measured by the share of non-performing exposures and the share of Stage 2 credit risk, remained at the December level, but individual parts of the portfolio show different trends. |
| 03/04/2022 | Review of macroeconomic developments, March 2022 On this occasion it is the impact of the Russian military aggression on economic growth and inflation in Slovenia that lies at the heart of the publication. According to current assessments, it is still relatively limited, but the risks are increasing. One notable innovation is that the publication will make regular use of nowcasting. This is entirely model-based, making use of available data, and does not incorporate expert assessments of current macroeconomic developments. Currently it indicates that economic growth will remain high in the first quarter of this year. |

| 02/16/2022 | Monthly report on bank performance February 2022 Credit growth rose year-on-year in December, mainly due to stronger growth in housing loans. The year-on-year lag in the volume of consumer loans continued to narrow, mainly due to loan repayments from previous years. Growth in loans to non-financial corporations remained relatively high year-on-year, as they revived in the second half of the year. The shares of non-performing exposures further decreased at the end of the year, and in some parts of the portfolio there was a greater redistribution of claims to the group with higher credit risk. Deposits of non-financial corporations and households in banks significantly increased in December partly due to seasonal effects. |

Meanwhile, the year-on-year contraction in consumer loans slowed down somewhat. Loans to non-financial corporations remained higher year-on-year, but decreased compared to October, when larger loans were given to a few companies. The quality of the banks' portfolio, measured by the share of non-performing exposures, remains unchanged, however, the reclassification to the increased-risk stage has increased, indicating a decline in quality in parts of the banks' portfolios. |

The share of non-performing exposures remained at the same level in September as in the previous month, while the decline in the share of the loan portfolio with increased credit risk slowed down in recent months.

| 07/12/2021 | Monthly report on bank performance, July 2021 After several months of decline, bank loans to the non-banking sector rose again year on year in May. Lending to households has strengthened over the past three months due to an increase in housing loans, while the year-on-year decline in loans to non-financial corporations slowed in May. Due to one-off factors, banks' pre-tax profits were significantly higher than last year in the same period, although the sustainability of banks' profits generated in this manner remains uncertain in the future. Net release of impairments and provisions at most banks also contributed to the increase in profit. |

Their net financial position has improved relative to the euro area, and was more favourable than that of non-financial corporations in the euro area overall by the end of the observation period. The better net financial position of the general government sector in Slovenia compared with the euro area overall was also attributable to its higher financial assets, alongside lower indebtedness. The weaker financial position of households in Slovenia was primarily attributable to the lower financial assets at their disposal; household indebtedness in Slovenia was lower than in the euro area. |
| 02/16/2021 | Monthly report on bank performance, February 2021 The banking system was operating in truly exceptional circumstances in 2020, and the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic will continue to be reflected in its performance in the future. Despite the downturn in business conditions, the banking system recorded relatively high profits in the amount of EUR 472 million, down just a fifth on the previous year, largely as a result of a one-off effect from the merger of two banks. Without this effect, profit would have been down more than a half on 2019. The increase in sight deposits by the non-banking sector continued. The main decline was in corporate loans, but consumer loans also continued to decline. Growth in housing loans remained at a similar rate to previous months. The banking system is otherwise still maintaining a good capital and liquidity position. |

Surplus of trade in services in first eleven months of 2020 reached 1,9 EUR billion, which is 72% less than in the same timeframe of 2019. Due to corona crisis, travel was hit the hardest.

| 01/11/2021 | Monthly report on bank performance, January 2021 Despite the aggravation of epidemiological situation and deterioration of business conditions, the banking system generated relatively high profits until November 2020 due to one-off effect of the merger of two banks. Profit before tax lagged behind the previous year by less than a fifth, and without a one-off event, it would have been lower by as much as 53.9 %. The contraction in corporate and consumer loans continued, while housing loans continued to grow. Banks’ capital and liquidity position remained good. |
| 01/05/2021 | Monthly Bulletin, December 2020 At the end of November households had at other monetary financial institutions in Slovenia (including non-profit institutions, which provide services for households) only EUR 301 million or less than 3% of loans in foreign currency, in comparison with EUR 1,256 million loans in foreign currency (more than 13% of their loans) ten years ago. |
