The UK financial system has shown strength in supporting households and businesses during the pandemic, and is well-equipped to provide continued assistance as the economy recovers. The banking sector remains resilient, with evidence of increased risk-taking in financial markets. Corporate sector debt vulnerabilities have modestly increased, and SMEs in certain sectors may require additional support. Overall, the financial markets are being strengthened to ensure they can support the economy in both good and bad times.
