Strong Financial Trends Across the Board

The Central Bank of Cyprus reported significant financial gains for September 2025, with both deposits and loans registering substantial increases. According to the monthly edition of “Monetary and Financial Statistics,” total deposits surged by €670.2 million compared to a modest €44.3 million in August. This upbeat performance pushed the overall deposit base to €57.2 billion, reflecting a year-on-year growth rate of 6.3%—up slightly from 6% the previous month.

Deposits Driven by Non-Financial Sectors
