Commenting on the 2011 EBA stress tests the FSA said:
“We welcome the publication of the EBA stress tests which are an important part of ensuring market confidence and promoting market discipline. The results support our own stress tests and we are pleased that the major UK banks have capital above the minimum required in the test, reflecting the work we and the banks have undertaken to improve resilience since the crisis.”
