PERCENTAGE CHANGE IN TOTAL ASSETS, from previous quarter
Graph: Percentage Change In Total Assets, from previous quarter


During the December quarter 2012, the rise in total assets was due primarily to rises in other loans (up $1.0b, 7.8%), non-residential mortgage loans (up $0.2b, 13.8%) and credit card loans and trade receivables (up $0.1b, 42.2%). This was partially offset by the falls in residential mortgage loans (down $0.8b, 0.8%) and cash and deposits (down $0.1b, 2.0%).

Mortgage assets, which accounted for 83.6% of total assets, were $104.7b as at 31 December 2012, a fall of $0.6b (0.6%) during the quarter.

As at 31 December 2012, total liabilities of Australian securitisers were $125.2b, up $0.4b (0.3%) on 30 September 2012.

These were partially offset by the falls in short-term asset backed securities issued in Australia (down $1.0b, 12.0%) and asset backed securities issued overseas (down $0.4b, 2.5%).
