APRA releases new Monthly Authorised Deposit-taking Institution Statistics for August 2019
The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) has released its Monthly Authorised Deposit-taking Institution Statistics (MADIS) for August 2019. This is the second edition of the new MADIS publication, which replaces the Monthly Banking Statistics (MBS).
MADIS is conceptually similar to MBS, but benefits from the improvements in data quality inherent in the Economic and Financial Statistics (EFS) data collection. As such, MADIS includes an expanded data set covering domestic and foreign banks, building societies, larger credit unions and other authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs).
Copies of the July 2019 monthly publications are available on the APRA website at Monthly Authorised Deposit-taking Institution statistical publications.
Further information relating to the new MADIS publication can be found at Authorised deposit-taking institution publications refresh.
The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) is the prudential regulator of the financial services industry. It oversees banks, mutuals, general insurance and reinsurance companies, life insurance, private health insurers, friendly societies, and most members of the superannuation industry. APRA currently supervises institutions holding around $9 trillion in assets for Australian depositors, policyholders and superannuation fund members.
