Countercyclical capital buffer rates are intended to improve the stability and resilience of financial intermediary systems across credit cycles, and guarantee the sustainable contribution to economic growth of financial systems, according to MNB’s statement.

Currently, there are no recent changes in the level and dynamics of cyclical systematic risks, according to MNB. The bank concluded that no changes are to be expected during the upcoming review.
