On 22 September 2014 Charles Thorburn published an infographic explaining the CreditSquare UK SME Credit Indices. The page supplied an image and a link that other publishers could embed. The replacement graphic at that image address illustrates the published figures in a new design.
Q2 2014 in index points
| Quarter | Credit demand | Credit supply |
|---|---|---|
| Q2 2014 | 56.0 | 86.1 |
The first release’s midpoint was 50. Demand stood six points above it and supply stood 36.1 points above it. A higher reading indicated expansion in the underlying indicators. The series brought together lending data and responses from borrowers and lenders, so its units are index points. An interest rate, a loan balance or an approval percentage measures something else.
Read the launch account for definitions or the historical review for a worked comparison between two quarters. The later activity and availability releases used a revised methodology.
