Slightly tighter credit standards
In Danmarks Nationalbank's lending survey for the 4th quarter 2019, 4 of the 17 credit managers in the surveyed banks report that they have tightened the credit standards slightly compared to last quarter. When the credit managers' answers are weighted with the market share of their respective bank, the credit standards for lending to corporate and private customers on average are tightened by approximately -6 and -3, respectively (where 0 corresponds to unchanged credit standards and -50 corresponds to all the banks having tightened slightly).
