14/11/2024 (Agence Europe) – On Tuesday 12 November, the European Banking Authority (EBA) unveiled the methodology, templates and timetable it will apply for the 2025 banking stress test to a sample of financial institutions accounting for nearly 75% of the banking sector in the euro area. A number of factors, including credit, market, counterparty and operational risks, will be tested under a baseline macroeconomic scenario and an adverse scenario. Banks will also have to report on how the materialisation of an adverse scenario would affect their main income streams. With the stress test starting next January, the banks concerned will have to submit data in April, June and July, with a view to publishing the results in early August 2025. This timetable takes into account the entry into force of revised banking prudential rules (CRR3/CDR VI) applicable from late 2024. Further information: https://aeur.eu/f/eai (MB)
