The growth of the housing construction project financing portfolio in the second quarter amounted to 0.7 trillion rubles (0.4 trillion rubles in the previous quarter). Loan issuances increased slightly due to the launch of new projects, while repayments, on the contrary, decreased due to a slowdown in the commissioning of buildings.

Project financing provided about 60% of the total growth of the corporate loan portfolio for the quarter. Developers' debt at the end of the second quarter exceeded 9.3 trillion rubles (48% of the banking sector capital).

Sales of apartments under equity participation agreements in construction in value terms decreased slightly (-6%, to 1.3 trillion rubles). At the same time, receipts to escrow accounts remained at the level of the first quarter (1.1 trillion rubles). The difference between sales and receipts is mainly due to the provision of installments. At the same time, the volume of sales by installments is slightly higher than can be judged by this difference, since part of the receipts to escrow accounts are payments on previously taken installments.

The average weighted rate on the project financing portfolio increased to 10.7% per annum (0.4 percentage points per quarter), but remains significantly lower than the average lending rate in the corporate segment (18.9%).
