Bank of England to publish 2019 bank stress tests on Dec. 10

Reuters - UK Focus
Updated

LONDON, Oct 18 (Reuters) - The Bank of England said on Friday it would publish the results of its annual assessment of banks' readiness for financial shocks at 1700 GMT on Dec. 10.

Earlier this year the BoE said it would look at the resilience of Britain's banking system to deep simultaneous recessions in the domestic and global economies and large falls in asset prices, and separately to misconduct costs.

Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds Banking Group, Nationwide Building Society, Royal Bank of Scotland, Santander UK and Standard Chartered are taking part in the process, which looks at whether they hold enough capital. (Reporting by David Milliken; editing by Kate Holton)
