The European Banking Authority (EBA) today released the results of its 2025 EU-wide stress test involving 64 banks from 17 EU and EEA countries and covering 75% of EU banking sector assets. The results confirm that European banks remain resilient even under a severe hypothetical economic downturn. The simulated scenario involves a sharp deterioration in the global macro-financial environment, driven by a resurgence in geopolitical tensions, entrenched trade fragmentation, including increase in tariffs, and persistent supply shocks. EU banks, despite bearing losses of EUR 547bn, maintain strong capital positions and their capacity to continue supporting the economy.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published its Q4 2024 semi-annual Dashboard on the minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL), which discloses aggregated statistical information for 345 banks earmarked for resolution across the European Union (EU) and for which the EBA has received data about both decisions and resources. All in all, banks meet their MREL requirements in line with the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) deadline of 1 January 2024, as shortfalls are reported only by a few banks, mostly in their transition period towards future requirements. The amount of instruments becoming ineligible over the next year for the sample reached EUR 242bn.

The consultation runs until 31 October 2025.
