  • The EBA Launches Its 2025 EU-Wide Stress Test

    Date 20/01/2025

    • The 2025 EU-wide stress test will assess EU banks’ performance under a baseline and adverse scenario during a three-year time horizon, from 2025 to 2027.
    • The adverse scenario assumes a hypothetical aggravation of geopolitical tensions leading to a severe decline in GDP by 6.3% cumulatively. The adverse scenario is designed to ensure a significant severity of various macro-economic and financial shocks across all EU countries and depicts a breakdown of the shocks (on real gross value added) by economic sectors.
    • The exercise will be conducted on a sample of 64 banks, thus covering 75% of total banking assets in the EU and Norway.
