Market Based Finance Monitor
The Market Based Finance (MBF) sector in Ireland is one of the largest internationally, both in absolute terms and relative to the size of the economy.
As well as providing a valuable alternative to bank financing, MBF can also contribute to a build-up of financial vulnerabilities, which need to be monitored.
In December 2023, the Central Bank of Ireland published its second Market Based Finance Monitor.
The aim of this publication is to track trends and the evolution of vulnerabilities in the sector in a systematic way.
This is a core element of the Central Bank of Ireland’s approach to safeguarding financial stability.
