BoE brings forward bank stress test results due to Brexit deal
LONDON (Reuters) - The Bank of England said on Tuesday it would bring forward publication of bank stress tests to Nov. 28 so that it could give analysis of how the central bank would cope with a possible "no deal" Brexit before parliament votes on a deal.
The BoE said the Financial Stability Report (FSR) and the full results of the Bank's annual stress test of major UK banks would be published on Nov. 28 rather than Dec. 5.
The BoE said it would fulfil a request from parliament's Treasury Committee to provide analysis of how the draft Brexit divorce deal "will affect the Bank's ability to deliver its statutory remits for monetary and financial stability, including in a 'no deal, no transition' scenario."
The committee had requested this analysis be concluded in good time before parliament votes on a deal.
