The Central Bank said stress tests conducted last year showed that the country's financial industry is "rather stable and capable of withstanding possible negative consequences" of the European debt crisis.
Lenders' capital adequacy ratio may fall to between 12 percent and 14 percent under economic scenarios considered by the regulator, the Central Bank said in its annual Financial Stability Review published on its website Monday.
The calculations were made as of Oct. 1, according to the report.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
