Subsequently depicted is the loan emission evolution in the private sector during the 90’s, the 1997 crisis impact on the loan market and the following „credit crunch“ are examined in more detail. Additionally, the influence of the privatization of large czech banks on the loan administration after the year 2000 is studied as well as the entrance of the Czech Republic into the European Union, which affected primarily banking regulation.

This analysis is executed for the household and the business sectors of the Czech Republic separately. |
