ATL Achieves 97,840 Mtnd in Approvals in Q4 2024, Down 16.0% YoY
All business segments experienced a decline, particularly Tourism (-25.3% to 20,531 Mtnd) and Services & Commerce (-6.1% to 48,803 Mtnd). The same applies to Agriculture (-24.1% to 9,713 Mtnd) and Construction (-25.2% to 6,156 Mtnd). It is unclear whether this decline reflects a decrease in demand or a deliberate choice by ATL as part of its risk management policy.
