Australia’s private sector credit growth remained unchanged in September 2026, holding at 0.6% month-over-month, the same pace recorded in August 2026. The latest figures, updated on 30 October 2026, indicate a steady expansion in credit conditions rather than any acceleration or slowdown.

On a month-over-month basis, the “actual” reading for September is directly compared with August, while the “previous” figure reflects August’s growth relative to July. With both months posting identical 0.6% increases, the data suggest a consistent credit environment for businesses and households, with no fresh signal of tightening or loosening in private sector borrowing dynamics over this period.
