Financial assets of Croatian economy up €24.2 bn year-on-year 

At the end of Q3 2022 the financial assets of the entire Croatian economy stood at €388 billion, an increase of €24.2 billion year-on-year and €9.4 billion up from the previous quarter. The total financial liabilities reached €404 billion, up by €20.4 billion over the past twelve months, and up by €5.1 billion compared to the end of Q2 2022.

In terms of GDP, financial assets of Croatia’s economy amounted to 597 percent of the country’s annual GDP at the end of the Q3 2022, down by 48.7 percentage points from the same period last year. Total liabilities in terms of GDP dropped by 59.3 percentage year-on-year, accounting for 622 percent of the annual GDP at the end of the Q3 2022.

“These quarterly developments continue the trend of decrease of both assets and liabilities of the Croatian economy in terms of GDP, which started in the second quarter of 2021 due to a slower increase in their value compared to the growth of quarterly GDP,” the central bank said in a press release, without offering interpretation as to the underlying causes of the decrease.
