Taiwan's domestic banks have extended a total of NT$10.68 trillion in loans to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as of end-July, according to the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC).
The figure represents an increase of NT$114.5 billion ($3.78 billion) compared to end-June 2025, highlighting continued financial support for SMEs.
SME loans made up 63.95% of total enterprise lending and 67.57% of total loans to private companies. Both shares, however, were slightly lower than a year ago, down 0.78 and 0.99 percentage points, respectively.
The average non-performing loan (NPL) ratio for SME loans stood at 0.22%, a marginal 0.01 percentage point increase compared to June.
The FSC said the figures show sustained confidence in SMEs as key drivers of Taiwan's economy, even as regulators monitor risks from rising loan balances.
