The monthly yield on residential mortgage loans (Total) is a weighted average yield on the total of all types of loans (floating and fixed) for registered banks fully secured on residential property.
It is calculated using the sum of each bank’s interest income received for both floating and fixed residential mortgage loans compared to the sum of a two period moving average of the value of these loans. Using a two period moving average for the value of loans takes into account that not all loans at the end of the reporting period would have contributed to the interest income over the reported month.
The yield takes into account the number of days within each month and is annualised. Each yield is calculated as follows:
Yield = (The sum of each bank's interest income received on loans / The sum of a two period moving average of the value of loans) X (365 / number of days in a month) X 100
The monthly yield on residential mortgage loans (Floating) is a weighted average yield on the total of all floating rate loans for registered banks fully secured on residential property.

Using a two period moving average for the value of loans takes into account that not all loans at the end of the reporting period would have contributed to the interest income over the reported month.
The yield takes into account the number of days within each month and is annualised.
See Yield on residential mortgage loans (Total) above for the calculation formula.
The monthly yield on residential mortgage loans (Fixed) is a weighted average yield on the total of all fixed rate loans for registered banks fully secured on residential property.

The monthly yield on total business loans is a weighted average yield on the total of all business loans for registered banks (not fully secured by residential property).
It is calculated using the sum of each bank’s interest income received for total business loans compared to the sum of a two period moving average of the value of these loans. Using a two period moving average for the value of loans takes into account that not all loans at the end of the reporting period would have contributed to the interest income over the reported month.

The cost takes into account the number of days within each month and is annualised. Each cost is calculated as follows:
Cost = (The sum of each bank’s interest expenses paid on bank deposits / The sum of a two period moving average of the value of deposits) X (365 / number of days in a month) X 100
