Borrowers remain cautious about borrowing money, new data has revealed.
According to the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, total credit provided to the private sector by financial intermediaries rose by 0.2 per cent in July.
Over the year to August, total credit rose just 2.7 per cent – distinctly less than the decade-average rate of 10.5 per cent.

“They are happy to stay in their current houses for longer and I think this is a trend we will see for some time – especially while there are ongoing problems overseas.”
Debt refers to the amount of money borrowed from a creditor with the intention to pay back at a specified date.
