During the first half of 2023, most domestic banks were reporting a weaker demand for commercial and industrial (C&I) loans in the United States. That weak demand applied to C&I loans for both large and middle-market firms, as well as small firms. Any figure below zero signals that over 50 percent of bank officers experienced less demand for those loans, while figures above zero show that at least half of domestic banks perceived a stronger demand.
