5. Sectoral distribution DECEMBER 2020 DECEMBER 2021
of gross exposures
The graphs to the right reflect gross exposures
(including equity and debt instruments). The gross
exposures to financials significantly increased year-
on-year denoting QFC banks’ reduction in corporate
lending and increasing deployment as exposures to
banks. The remaining sectors, notably Basic Materials,
Oil & Gas, Construction and Transport all remained at
similar levels end of 2021, albeit as they represented
a smaller proportion of the overall distribution due to
the effect of the increase in exposure to Financials.
