Video explains how we test banks’ safety


The Reserve Bank has released a new animated video explaining banking sector stress tests.

Stress testing is a tool to assess how banks might cope with a severe economic downturn.

The two-minute animated video explains how stress tests work and why the Reserve Bank uses them to monitor and respond to risks in the banking sector.

The video is part of a series of animated videos prepared by the Reserve Bank. These include ‘The OCR and how it works’, ‘What is the economy?’, ‘Compound Interest’ and ‘What is money?’.
