"Deposit migration" accelerates - The difference between the growth rate of household deposits and M2 growth rate turns negative for the first time in 7 and a half years

The report from Galaxy Securities shows that in January, the growth rate of household deposits dropped to 7.18%, a significant decrease from the previous value of 9.68%. The difference between the growth rate of household deposits and M2 growth rate turned negative for the first time, reaching -1.82 percentage points, marking a return to negative values after seven and a half years.
