09:53 EDTLYGLloyds Banking outlook lowered to negative from stable by S&P
Standard & Poor's Ratings noted Lloyds has recently announced a further GBP1B provision in relation to payment protection insurance, bringing the cumulative provision over the past two years to about GBP5.3B. S&P said, "This charge, together with other exceptional items, negatively affects our assessment of Lloyds' capital and earnings. As a result, we are less likely to revise this assessment to "adequate" from "moderate" over the next 12 months. We are therefore revising our outlook on the long-term rating on Lloyds to negative from stable. We are also affirming our 'A/A-1' ratings on Lloyds."

12:32 EDTLYGEU bank stress test delayed until 2014 by regulator
The EBA agreed on recommendations to supervisors to conduct asset quality reviews on major EU banks. While banks’ capital positions were significantly strengthened under the EBA’s recapitalisation exercise, the objective of the asset quality exercises will be to review banks’ classifications and valuations of their assets so to help dispel concerns over the deterioration of asset quality due to macroeconomic conditions in Europe. Since appropriately reviewed balance sheets are a key input to an effective stress test, the EBA has also adjusted the timeline of the next EU-wide stress test so to conduct the exercise in 2014 once the asset quality reviews are completed. However, to ensure transparency and comparability over the years, the EBA will provide, in 2H, appropriate disclosure on the actual exposures of the EU banking sector. Reference Link
