Note: Part of the increase in real estate lending may be due to re-categorisation of corporate lending following sale and lease-back of properties and PFI (public finance initiative) lending, but we do not think these elements are large enough to change the overall picture. Break in series from Q1 2008 due to inclusion of building society data. Sterling borrowing only.
