FX.co ★ Israel’s M1 Money Supply Growth Cools Sharply to 2.6% YoY in April

Israel’s M1 money supply growth decelerated significantly in April 2026, signaling a notable moderation in short-term liquidity conditions. Year-over-year, M1 expanded by 2.6% in April, down from a 6.1% annual increase recorded in March 2026.

The data, updated on 14 May 2026, show that the pace of growth in cash and demand deposits has cooled when compared with the same month a year earlier, and also relative to the previous month’s year-over-year performance. This shift suggests a marked slowdown in the expansion of readily available money within the Israeli economy over the period.
