A diffusion index indicates the climate of the loan approval estimated by heads of banking institutions in the observed quarter. The index is derived by calculating the proportions of respondents whose "approval increased", "approval remained the same", and "approval decreased", assigning weights 1, 0.5, and 0 to them respectively. Finally, the average value is calculated and converted to percentage. Interpretation: Percentage of indicators that expect increasing demand.
