Qatar’s liquidity woes, higher risks to weigh on loan growth | GulfNews.com:

"Qatari banks is expected to see moderate loans growth over the next 18-24 months, according to ratings agency Standard & Poor’s (S&P).

The banking system’s loan-to-deposit ratio rose to 116.8 per cent as of November 30, 2015, up from 103.4 per cent a year earlier as lending continued to grow faster than deposits.

“Given our expectations for continued slow deposit growth and the banking sector’s already high loan-to-deposit ratio, we anticipate that banks will manage credit growth more conservatively,” said S&P credit analyst Nadim Amatouri.
