Summary

Asset valuations remain elevated. Vulnerabilities from business and household debt remained moderate. Vulnerabilities associated with financial leverage remained notable (Private Credit). Funding risks have remained moderate. Additionally, the report looks at salient risks to the financial system. Survey respondents had concerns about geopolitical risks, oil shock, artificial intelligence, private credit, and persistent inflation.
