Handelsbanken in European stress test

Today, the European Banking Authority (EBA) and the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority published a stress test comprising some 50 European banks. 

The test examines the European banking system’s resistance by means of a hypothetical crisis scenario, including a severe recession and a fall in property prices. The results show how well banks will be able to cope with loan losses.  

The results for Handelsbanken are available on the Bank’s website: www.handelsbanken.se/ireng. 

The full survey can be found on the EBA’s website www.eba.europa.eu
