Royal Bank of Scotland saw the biggest failure last years annual health check and had to bolster its financial strength by £2bn.
Banks are bracing themselves for the release of the Bank of England's annual stress tests tomorrow after a number struggled to pass last year. Royal Bank of Scotland saw the biggest failure in the BoE's annual health check which resulted in the bank having to bolster its financial strength by £2bn.
The Bank first introduced the stress tests back in 2014 as it looked to ensure that the UK would not face the same issues it did following the last financial crash. Each lender has its own pass rate and the BoE will announce how each has coped with the tests on Tuesday.
