European auto loan and lease credit performance varied in July. Annualised losses in our EUR50 billion auto loan ABS index increased 7 basis points (bps) month-over-month (MoM), but fell 18 bps year-over-year (YoY) to 0.46%. Meanwhile, after hitting a seven-year high last month, losses in our EUR33 billion auto lease ABS index declined to 0.41%, down 21 bps MoM, but 23 bps higher YoY.
Delinquency rate metrics were more closely aligned, with the percentage of borrowers in early-stage delinquency (30-59 days) holding steady at 0.43% for auto loans and falling 4 bps to 0.29% for auto lease transactions. Late-stage (60+ days) delinquency rates climbed 1 bps MoM for auto loans and 4 bps MoM for auto lease transactions in July. Current index values as well as MoM and YoY changes are shown in Figure 1.
