Claims on private sector include gross credit from the financial system to individuals, enterprises, nonfinancial public entities not included under net domestic credit, and financial institutions not included elsewhere.

This indicator represents the annual percentage growth in the ratio of claims to broad money. Annual figures for Saudi Arabia from 1961 to 2017.
