### Overview
- This paper presents a financial system stability assessment update for the Czech Republic.
- The financial system is confronted with a number of growing risks.
- Owing to a high reliance of the Czech economy on exports to European Union (EU) countries, the main risk stems from negative developments in EU countries.

### Key findings
- The results of stress tests show that Czech banks can withstand substantial shocks.
- The regulatory and supervisory framework for financial institutions is generally sound.
- Inadequate resources within the regulatory and supervisory framework are identified as a major weakness.

### Stress testing and resilience
- Stress tests indicate Czech banks can withstand substantial shocks.

### Regulatory and supervisory framework
- Framework assessment: generally sound.
- Major weakness: inadequate resources for regulatory and supervisory authorities.
