Stress testing

For evaluation of the resilience of the financial system as a whole the CNB uses the instrument of stress testing. The stress tests results are published in the annual Financial Stability Report.

Taking into account the key role of banks in the financial system of the Czech Republic, stress testing of the banking sector is performed quarterly and the results are published. The methodology of stress testing has been regularly amended and published in the individual Financial Stability Reports, usually as thematic articles.
