Euro area net non-financial investment decreased to €434 billion (3.6% of net disposable income), due to decreased investment by households and non-financial corporations which more than offset increased net investments by financial corporations and general government (see Chart 1).
Euro area net lending to the rest of the world was broadly unchanged at €431 billion reflecting the broadly unchanged net saving and the decrease in net non-financial investment being broadly matched by a decrease in net capital transfers. Net lending of non-financial corporations decreased to €173 billion (1.4% of net disposable income) from €202 billion while that of financial corporations was unchanged at €147 (1.2% of net disposable income). Net lending by households increased to €579 billion (4.8% of net disposable income) from €574 billion. Net borrowing by general government decreased, contributing less negatively to euro area net lending (-€469 billion or ‑3.9% of net disposable income, after -€489 billion).

The ECB cut its benchmark rate to 2.25% earlier this month, reaching the upper range of the 1.75%-2.25% range it sees as neutral, and governors are becoming more confident about a further reduction in June.
