We present a macroprudential stress testing framework. While traditional stress testing assesses the level of banks' capital adequacy relative to regulatory requirements through a hypothetical crisis, macroprudential stress testing assesses macroeconomic consequences of the impact of banks'...

We introduce a simple new hypothesis testing procedure, which, based on an independent sample drawn from a certain density, detects which of $k$ nominal densities is the true density is closest to, under the total variation (L_{1}) distance. We obtain a density-free uniform exponential bound for...
