The category ‘other personal’ includes credit cards, personal loans and personal overdrafts.
The industry classifications in tables 28, 29 and 30 have been prepared at the level of the borrowing entity. This means that a loan to the
subsidiary of a major corporation is classified by the industry in which the subsidiary operates, even though the parent’s predominant business
may be in a different industry. Loans to customers domiciled outside the country where the office recording the transaction is located are shown
in the chart under ‘Overseas customers’ and not by industry.
