Measuring the evolution of monetary and financial services in Portugal

Financial services (other than insurance, pension funding and compulsory social security) cover a broad range of activities regarding the obtaining and redistributing of funds. They include monetary intermediation, eg the receiving of deposits and/or close substitutes for deposits, and the extending of credit or lending of funds through a variety of forms (such as loans, mortgages and credit cards). In the EU context, those activities are carried out by the so-called monetary financial institutions (MFIs), a category that encompasses central banks, credit institutions (as defined in EU law) and other resident financial institutions that fulfil the MFI definition, irrespective of the nature of their business (eg money market funds). A second class of financial services, which could be called non-monetary financial intermediation, comprises the activities of, for example, holding companies, trusts, funds and similar financial entities (excluding money market funds), financial leasing companies, creditgranting by institutions other than MFIs, other financial service activities primarily concerned with distributing funds other than loans and own-account investment activities. A last category of financial services concerns activities that are auxiliary to financial services and insurance activities involved in, or closely related to, financial service activities, but which do not themselves provide financial services.
