Why traders watch it
Credit growth indicates how Brazil's high interest rates are affecting borrowing by companies and families.
Stronger vs weaker outcomes
Faster growth than expected points to looser monetary and credit conditions and can support expectations of firmer activity or inflation; slower growth points the other way.
A higher reading means Brazil's total credit balance grew faster than in the previous month.
A lower reading means it grew more slowly or fell.
Higher means faster; lower means slower.
