Competent authorities also showed ability to react to macro events that affected the financial situation of institutions under their supervision, though timely information exchange and cooperation should be enhanced.

Headline inflation has declined over recent months, but underlying price pressures remain strong. At the same time, the past rate increases are being transmitted forcefully to euro area financing and monetary conditions, while the lags and strength of transmission to the real economy remain uncertain.
