Despite the pick-up, external operations dropped, while Government operations slowed in September. The demand for funds by the private sector, on the other hand, remained stable during the month. Loan growth also inched higher to 9.0% y-o-y in September, from +8.6% in August month and compared with +9.5% recorded in the same period in 2013.
