Notes:

[a] These series may be affected by securitisations and loan transfers up to December 2009.

[b] This series is updated annually following the publication of relevant data by The Student Loans Company. An alternative measure, excluding student loans, is published each month. The equivalent series reference is available at www.bankofengland.co.uk/statistics/documents/iadb/notesiadb/mappingdoc.pdf. Further information can be found in Bankstats, July 2012, 'A new measure of consumer credit', available at www.bankofengland.co.uk/statistics/Documents/ms/articles/art1jul12.pdf.

[c] Mortgage Style Loans are no longer included in this series from April 2013 following their sale to a third party. For more information, see www.slc.co.uk/official-statistics.aspx.

[d] This series has been seasonally adjusted from January 2010. Prior to 2010, this series has not been seasonally adjusted as after examination it was found not to be significantly seasonal.

[e] The Office for National Statistics transferred their collection of monthly consumer credit data by 'other specialist lenders' to the Bank of England in April 2024. The Bank of England began collecting these data on 'Form MC' and made initial amendments to the reporting population. The overall impact of these amendments has been broadly balanced, with only a slight increase in the amounts outstanding, and some changes to gross lending and repayments series for consumer credit.
