We find that countries with higher quality of financial policies are better able to contain the effects of macroeconomic pressures on the overall level of stress in the financial system. They are also in a better position to ensure sustainable development of the financial system. Mode of access: Internet Podpiera, Richard. Rozhkov, Dmitriy. Yossifov, Plamen.
