Total assets of the banking sector in the euro area 2002-2022

The source adds further comments: "Banks refer to the broader category of Deposit-taking Institutions. Financial assets when available, otherwise total assets. In case of missing data in a time series, values were not inter- or extrapolated. Converted to U.S. dollars using the end of the period market exchange rates. Figures published here are from the FSB's 2020 global non-bank financial intermediation monitoring exercise, which assesses global trends and risks in non-bank financial intermediation. Figures show financial assets when available, otherwise total assets, converted into USD using year-end exchange rates using a constant exchange rate (from end-2020) published by the BIS. These figures may differ from similar statistics published by national/regional authorities due to differences in definitions."
