Well, if they are lending for real estate then that should help to support demand. Apart from the builders and the suppliers, people moving into new homes tend to spend a lot on furniture and appliances. If homebuilding continues to rise due to low rates then that could boost demand enough to get the economy moving again.

I also believe that consumer lending is still strong.

Edit: I think that in Japan's case many of the borrowers are not just uncreditworthy...they are broke. Many of the banks are also broke.
