Detail commercial banking statistics for the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union is available from the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank website. The data contained in the commercial banking statistics on personal credit - “Acquisition of Property” is used to reference the size of the primary mortgage market in the ECCU. However, the primary mortgage market size is much larger when mortgages originated by credit unions, building and loan societies, mortgage finance companies, development banks and insurance companies are taken into account. Data on mortgages originated by non-commercial banking institutions are not currently available in an organized format as the commercial banking statistics.
