Time series breaks may occur in all sectors due to sector modifications from June 2004 (establishment of a separate sector for Member State credit institutions operating in Austria pursuant to Article 9 Austrian Banking Act).
¹ Including "Pfandbriefstelle" (until Q1 2018).
² Head office
³ Branch offices.
⁴ A reclassification among sectors (Bank Austria Creditanstalt AG) from savings banks to joint stock bank and private banks led to a break in the data series in December 2004.
⁵ Individual banks were reclassified from or to Joint stock banks and private banks, Raiffeisen credit cooperatives, Volksbank credit cooperatives and Special purpose banks in December 2006 to reflect the standardization of the sector allocation criteria used by the OeNB and the Financial Market Authority (FMA).
⁶ All state related data is based on the last quarter (irrespective of the selected time series).
