Flow of funds diagrams

National investment

National investment rose by $12.0b to $121.0b in the December quarter.

General government investment increased by $4.1b to $22.2b driven by an increase in state and local capital investment.

Non-financial corporations' investment increased slightly by $48m to $52.0b, driven by an increase in gross fixed capital formation.

Household investment rose $7.7b to $43.9b, from $36.2b in the previous quarter.

Financial investment

Australia was a net lender of $9.8b, the seventh consecutive quarter of net lending. The main contributors were a:

$53.7b increase in rest of world equities, driven by pension funds and non-money market funds
$12.3b repayment of loans driven by other private non-financial corporations (OPNFC)

Pension funds and non-money market funds sought increased returns in overseas markets as economic conditions continued to improve. OPNFC repaid debt and sought to raise funds through equity

Households

Households' $40.0b net lending position was the result of a $64.7b acquisition of assets and a $24.8b incurrence of liabilities, driven by a:

$28.1b increase in deposits
$19.7b increase in net equity in pension funds
$22.8b increase in loan borrowings

The increase in deposits reflects increased household saving due to ongoing government income support packages such as JobKeeper and economic support payments, although they were scaled back during the quarter. With economic conditions improving and interest rates at record lows households increased their loan borrowings. Net equity in pension funds increased as less households withdrew funds under the early access to superannuation policy.

Non-financial corporations

Non-financial corporations' $25.9b net lending position was due to a $39.5b acquisition of financial assets and a $13.6b increase in liabilities. The increase in assets was driven by a:

$18.0b increase in share and other equity investments
$9.9b increase in deposits

With continued recovery of onshore and overseas financial markets , non-financial corporations increased their holdings of equity. Deposits increased as non-financial corporations continued to save.

General government

General government's $53.2b net borrowing position was due to a $24.5b decrease in assets and $28.8b increase in liabilities and driven by:

$32.7b decrease in deposit assets
$23.5b net issuance of bonds
$18.1b increase in loan borrowings

Government drew down on deposits to finance expenditure and reduced their debt issueance and loan borrowings

Demand for credit was $63.3b in the December quarter, of which:

general government borrowed $28.9b
households borrowed $22.6b
other private non-financial corporations borrowed $2.6b

Credit market outstanding grew $185.2b (2.4%) of which $121.9b was revaluation gains. Revaluation gains of $134.4b in the shares of private non-financial corporations were partly offset by revaluation losses of $12.0b on national general government bonds due to rising 10 year bond yields.

General government

General government's demand for credit was $28.9b in the December quarter following the record $146.9b of funds raised last quarter. The national general government reduced the amount of treasury bonds issued and used surplus funds raised in previous quarters to finance COVID-19 policies. This quarter additional funds were acquired through:

$18.5b in loan borrowings by state and local general government
$23.4b in net bond issuances by national general government, partly offset by maturities of $12.5b in treasury notes

Households

Increased housing market activity boosting demand for new housing loans, particularly from owner-occupiers while investor loans also grew for the first time since December quarter 2018. Short term borrowing increased as households used credit card debt for retail spending amid rising consumer confidence. This was seen in:

$21.7b of long term loan borrowings
$1.0b of short term loan borrowings

Private non-financial corporations

Demand for credit remained low for other private non-financial corporations as businesses continued to repay lines of credit that had been drawn down in the March quarter. Businesses showed an increased preference for sourcing funds through equity raisings as they continued to deleverage amid ongoing uncertainty about future economic conditions. These are reflected in:

$10.9b repayment of loans and placements
$32.0b raised through shares and other equity

Household wealth rose 4.3% ($501.5b) to a new high of $12,033.5b at the end of the December quarter, driven by holding gains in financial assets and continued growth in the housing market.

Average household wealth increased 4.2% ($19,028) to $467,709 per person.

Financial assets

Financial assets of households rose 4.7% ($272.6b), driven by a:

$166.2b rise in superannuation reserves
$60.6b rise in shares and other equity

Superannuation reserves and shares and other equity are now above pre-pandemic levels, having fully recovered from the losses experienced in March quarter 2020. Growth was mainly driven by positive revaluations, reflecting the positive performance of domestic and overseas share markets.

Transactions in superannuation ($23.4b) were higher than during the September quarter ($10.1b), reflecting lower withdrawals under the early access to superannuation scheme, plus employment growth over the quarter as economic conditions improved.

Non-financial assets

Non-financial assets owned by households increased 3.1% ($253.1b), driven by a:

$250.5b rise in land and dwellings

Holding gains on land and dwellings reflect the continued rebound in property prices as housing market activity increased over the December quarter. The growth was supported by record low interest rates, continued support through a range of government incentives, and strong pent-up demand in combination with low levels of housing stock on the market. For further analysis, see: Insights of the housing market during COVID-19

Liabilities

Household liabilities increased 1.0% ($24.2b), driven by a:

$20.1b rise in housing loans
$1.0b rise in short term debt

The growth in housing loans reflects the increased activity in the property market over the quarter. The rise was mainly driven by owner-occupier loans, which increased $21.8b. Investor loans also contributed $2.6b to the rise, recording positive growth for the first time since December 2018.

Credit cards were the biggest contributor to the increase in short term debt. Positive growth this quarter follows on from three consecutive quarters of falls. The increase was supported by the easing of lockdown measures, boosting consumer confidence and encouraging households to spend. Growth was particularly strong in November and December, coinciding with strong retail spending figures due to Black Friday sales, as well as activity during the December holiday period.

Deposit accounts of private-non financial corporations increased $10.9b, as businesses maintained their strong liquidity positions through equity raising, and receipt of government subsidy payments. Private non-financial corporations deposits increased $111.0b over the 2020 calendar year, driving their record net lending position of $119.0b through the year. As economic uncertainty hindered investment decisions since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses have instead continued to accumulate their deposit assets.

Total financial assets of pension (superannuation) funds increased $159.8b during the quarter, recovering from the losses suffered in the March 2020 quarter, with

$164.0b increase in shares and other equity
partly offset by a $17.3b decrease in deposits

Favourable conditions in the domestic and overseas share markets drove valuation gains of $135.3b. Pension funds invested an additional $28.7b in shares and other equity, particularly in non-money market funds and rest of world. The early access to superannuation scheme closed at the end of December and the requirements for liquidity subsided. As a result, funds were reallocated from deposits into equities.

General government

Financial assets of general government (national, and state and local) decreased $18.1b (1.5%), driven by deposits with a:

$34.4b withdrawal of deposits with the RBA, partly offset by a
$1.4b placement of deposits with ADIs

Liabilities of general government increased $14.1b (0.1%), driven by a:

$23.3b issuance of bonds
$18.0b increase in loans, partly offset by a
$12.5b maturity of one name paper

The general government experienced the first decrease in financial assets, and weakest increase in liabilities since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Australian economy. The weakness was due to reduced issuance of treasury bonds and net maturities of treasury notes, as the Commonwealth government financed most of its expenditure through withdrawal of deposit assets. Issuance of semi-government bonds by central borrowing authorities was reduced to $20.5b, which was passed onto state governments as loans. Reduction in demand for loans was due to state governments beginning to draw down on surplus deposit assets to fund their own expenditure.

National net lending as a proportion of GDP rose this quarter driven by a rise in net saving. The continued easing of restrictions and increased activity led to a decline in COVID-19 related subsidies and and increase in taxes on production.

Households' net lending decreased by $26.0b to $29.5b
General government net borrowing decreased by $39.6b to $50.1b
Financial corporations' net lending decreased by $0.6b to $10.4b
Non-financial corporations' net lending decreased by $11.6b to $20.9b

Notable drivers for households and general government were:

Household final consumption expenditure increased, as easing of restrictions and growing confidence in public health measures increased spending across Australia.
General government primary income payable decreased driven by a reduction in COVID-19 subsidy support packages for businesses.

Capital Investment

National capital investment decreased to 22.1% as a proportion of GDP, the lowest proportion seen in this series history.
Relative to GDP:

Non-financial corporations' investment declined to 9.7%
General government investment declined slightly to 4.0%
Household investment increased to 7.9%
Financial corporations' investment declined slightly to 0.5%

Non-financial corporations' investment rose, despite falling slightly as a proportion of GDP. Increased investment in machinery and equipment was supported by government initiatives including the instant asset write off and improvements in conditions.
General government investment rose, despite also falling slightly as a proportion of GDP. This was driven by strength in state and local general government, reflecting elevated levels of investment in public infrastructure projects.
Household investment rose driven by ownership transfer costs, new dwellings and home improvement investment. The continued easing of restrictions, improved housing market confidence and the government HomeBuilder program supported increased housing investment.
