Mixed views on loan growth under Pakatan government


Losing momentum: Analysts expect loan growth to start to ease from next month as car sales fizzle out upon the introduction of the sales and service tax.

PETALING JAYA: Analysts are divided over the impact of the 14th general election (GE14) on loan growth.

While some expected the return of confidence under the Pakatan Harapan-led government resulting in robust loan growth in the second half of the year, others saw policy uncertainties leading to slower expansion in lending.
