1 System-wide stress simulation.pdf
Bank of England working paper introducing a model to simulate stress scenarios in the UK’s market-based finance system, focusing on interactions among broker-dealers, banks, investment funds, and insurers under solvency and liquidity constraints to assess systemic risk and fire-sale dynamics.
2 DeepStress-A deep learning approach for dynamic balance sheet stress testing.pdf
EBA-aligned research paper introducing Deep-Stress, a deep learning framework for dynamic balance sheet stress testing, improving Capital Adequacy Ratio forecasting accuracy by capturing non-linear macro-financial relationships and enhancing early warning systems for banking resilience.
3 Applying the Pre-Commitment Approach to bottom up Stress tests a new old story.pdf
EBA-linked paper explores applying the Pre-Commitment Approach (PCA) to bottom-up bank stress tests to mitigate moral hazard, proposing monetary penalties for underestimated risk forecasts under adverse scenarios, aligning bank and supervisor incentives.
4 Michele Catalano.pdf
Study assessing the severity of EBA 2016 and 2018 macroeconomic stress test scenarios for Italy using a joint probability approach, revealing low likelihood (0.15%–0.50%) and identifying key variables through reverse stress tests under Prometeia’s macro-econometric model.
6 Model-based approach for scenario design.pdf
EBA-aligned study proposing a model-based approach to assess stress test scenario severity and Italian banks' resilience using Bayesian VAR, analyzing GDP, market rates, and credit impact from 2014–2018 exercises to evaluate macro-financial spillovers and risk management improvements.
8 Determinants of banks’ liquidity a French perspective.pdf
EBA-supported study analysing how French banks adjust liquidity and balance sheet structures under Basel III’s LCR, examining interactions between solvency, funding liquidity, and market liquidity during crises, with policy implications for regulatory frameworks.
9 Taking regulation seriously - fire sales under solvency and liquidity constraints.pdf
Bank of England working paper analysing fire sales under solvency and liquidity constraints, modelling banks' asset liquidation strategies under leverage, risk-weighted capital, and liquidity coverage ratios to assess systemic risk and contagion effects in the UK banking system.
10 Modeling loan loss provisions under IFRS 9 in the top-down solvency stress test of the Central Bank of Hungary.pdf
Analysis by the Central Bank of Hungary on modeling loan loss provisions under IFRS 9 for solvency stress tests – examines expected loss forecasting, stage transitions, and procyclical impacts on the Hungarian banking sector’s corporate portfolio.
12 StochasticOptimizationSystemBankReverseStressTesting.pdf
Academic paper presenting a stochastic optimization system for bank reverse stress testing, enabling identification of critical risk factor combinations leading to default. Covers methodology, Monte Carlo simulation, Pillar 2 risks (sovereign, reputational, interest rate), liquidity-solvency interlinkage, and application to Italian banking sector under EBA/ICAAP/SREP frameworks.
