  1. The M3 annual growth rate in September 2022 would have stood at around 5.8% without a one-off technical factor related to a temporary deposit in the Eurosystem. That temporary deposit had been placed by a clearinghouse classified within the “non-monetary financial corporations excluding insurance corporations and pension funds” sector and was reversed in October 2022.
