This is the third issue of the Bank of Albania Financial Stability Report. Starting
from the year 2010, it will be released twice a year. This change arises from
the need to integrate the Financial Stability Statement, the six-month release
of which is required by law, into a single document. Information, in terms of
the number of publications, topics discussed and time appropriateness, is thus
better consolidated and focused. The Financial Stability Statement opens the
Report and generally serves as its summary.
The purpose of this Report is to detect and assess the risks the financial
system and its infrastructure are faced with, in order to provide the public
authorities the opportunity to identify the relevant measures for the necessary
corrections. For the compilation of this Report we have used data available
at the Bank of Albania, and information has been exchanged with other
authorities supervising the activity of the financial market. The Report has
also made use of information and analyses of public and private international
financial institutions.
