The outstanding loans of all financial institutions jumped 16.25 percent to 23.96 trillion yuan (3.1 trillion U.S. dollars) at the end of March, 1.52 percentage point higher from the same period last year, according to the report.
The bank noted that a total 441.7 billion yuan of RMB bank loans were added in March, an decrease of 95.8 billion yuan from last March.
