Off-balance sheet activities decreased significantly by 50.1% in 2019 compared to
the prior year. The decrease mainly resulted from a decline of QAR1,536 million in
performance-related guarantees. The volume of direct credit substitutes, trade-related
contingencies, and undrawn credit commitments also declined in 2019.
