Financial Stability Review: Financial system remains stable and resilient to risks

Banka Slovenije’s assessment is that the Slovenian banking system remains stable, despite the economic, financial and geopolitical uncertainties in the international environment. The level of systemic risks remains moderate, with the exception of macrofinancial risks and risks inherent in information and communication technology, which remained elevated, while income risk remains low. The banking system’s resilience to shocks remains high, which Banka Slovenije attributes to macroprudential policy measures and the proactive macroprudential policy stance. A new calculation has also been made for the minimum creditworthiness amount, which will be made available to the relevant public for commentary before any final adoption.

Financial Stability Review: banking system remains resilient to risks

Monthly report on bank performance

Banka Slovenije publishes monthly the key data of the banking system for the last available month. More detailed data on bank operations are also available in the form of an enriched statistical database.

Published: 15 September 2026

Bank lending activity moderated somewhat in July, reflecting slower year-on-year growth in lending to both non-financial corporations and households, particularly for housing loans. After several months of strong expansion that outpaced the euro area average, annual growth eased to slightly below 10% in July. Favorable developments in net interest and non-interest income continued in July, contributing to a 2% year-on-year increase in banks' pre-tax profit.

Note: June and July data may be subject to limited subsequent adjustments.
