Nicolas Véron: Detailed disclosure is the key to stress-test success


Default: Change to:


Bruegel Senior Fellow Nicolas Véron fordert eine verstärkte Offenlegung des Engagements von Banken in die Staatspapiere von Ländern in der Eurozone.


The European Union has committed to publish the results of stress tests of 91 of its largest banks at the end of next week. In this column published today by eurointelligence.com, Bruegel Senior Fellow Nicolas Véron argues that the success of this unprecedented initiative will be largely determined by the degree of disaggregated detail in the disclosure of results. He also calls for enhanced disclosure of each bank’s exposure to eurozone countries’ sovereign risk, to compensate for the fact that the stress scenario will not include a sovereign default.
