Of the economies in the World Bank's latest release, Singapore has the highest borrowers from commercial banks (per 1,000 adults) (1,074 in 2020) and South Sudan the lowest (1.02 in 2024). The world figure is 196.36 (2022).
What this measures
Borrowers from commercial banks are the reported number of resident customers that are nonfinancial corporations (public and private) and households who obtained loans from commercial banks and other banks functioning as commercial banks.
Limitations: For many countries data cover the total number of loan accounts due to lack of information on loan account holders. For several countries, data cover all borrowers including commercial banks, credit unions and financial cooperatives, deposit taking microfinance institutions, and other deposit takers. These include all resident financial corporations and quasi-corporations (except the central bank) that are mainly engaged in financial intermediation and that issue liabilities included in the national definition of broad money.
Each country's latest available year is shown; countries report on different schedules, so compare years before comparing values.
