However, the EBA said they were more stringent than those it carried out last year.
The common banking regulator for the 27 EU states is currently the European Banking Authority (EBA).

Well, those close to the EBA caution me that the important decisions have not yet been taken.
The EBA came in for fierce criticism last year for its handling of EU-wide bank stress tests.

Although the EBA is the arbiter in such disputes, it is not allowed to boss the ECB around.

Although this double-majority voting system for the EBA sounds boringly procedural, it could prove to be very significant.
This is opposed by France and Germany, which think the EBA lacks credibility.
"Under the EBA conditions the bank failed, that is clear, " Helaba spokesman Wolfgang Kuss told the AFP news agency on Friday.
The obvious regulator in that case would be the European Banking Authority (EBA), which currently writes rules but does little actual supervision.
In its defence, the EBA had no power to second-guess national supervisors.

But if, as the EBA says, those estimated losses may not be the worst that could happen, the implication is that default is no longer unthinkable.

And the EBA is insisting that plans to cope with such a default have to be drawn up by vulnerable banks within three months.
This may seem like a reward to the banks for raising 26 percent more capital than the EBA had originally mandated, but it smacks of favoritism.
Is there a chance that the UK's banks will be forced to raise additional capital, since the reach of the EBA is the whole of Europe, not just the eurozone?
It was what the EBA had to say about banks that only narrowly passed the tests, and have significant exposure to the state debts of Greece, Ireland and Portugal, that reverberated.
When the board of the EBA met in the first week of October, the routinely scheduled gathering, held in the EBA's offices with panoramic views of central London, took on an emergency tenor.
Two railway watchdogs, the Eisenbahnbundesamt (EBA) and the Bundesnetzagentur (BNetzA), try to keep DB on the rails, by checking how it manages such conflicts of interest as it allocates routes, sets timetables and schedules repairs.
It said it would have passed the test if regulators counted a debt-equity hybrid, called "silent participation", as a capital reserve, but the EBA, having initially said it would accept this, then changed its mind.
The EBA said it recommends that these banks be forced by their respective national regulators to raise additional capital as a protection against possible further losses from loans going bad, with a deadline of 15 October for the formulation of remedial plans and 15 April 2012 for implementation.
Instead there will be a slightly messier process, in which there is central determination - by the EBA, in collaboration with national regulators - of how much individual banks need, and then individual countries will decide how the money can and should be injected into their respective banks.
