The recent reduction in equity market volatility has reversed most of the tightening in our market-based narrow Financial Conditions Indices for advanced economies. Our broad FCIs, which also incorporate information on interest rates and lending criteria for firms and households, suggest that average financial conditions are much looser than they were a year ago, albeit still somewhat tighter than historic norms.
Clients can view and download our FCIs, together with a full breakdown by component/economy and associated methodology, on our Financial Conditions Indices dashboard.
