Bank Lending Survey

Everyone loves surveys. Social media. Likes. Ignores.

Basically, the bank lending survey is offered quarterly, by the Fed, to quantify the number of loans made, the current interest rates on loans, demand for new loans, default rates, etc. The information helps each country's central bank function in the ever-changing world of banking, trying to discern whether or not demand for money will be more, less or the same in the future.
