We show how the orbital magnetization of an interacting disordered diffusive electron gas can be simply related to the magnetization of the non-interacting system having the same geometry. This result is applied to the persistent current of a mesoscopic ring and to the relation between Landau diamagnetism and the interaction correction to the magnetization of diffusive systems. The field dependence of this interaction contribution can be deduced directly from the de Haas-van Alphen oscillations of the free electron gas. Known results for the free orbital magnetism of finite systems can be used to derive the interaction contribution in the diffusive regime in various geometries.
