Know about the book -

Stress Testing in Sub-Saharan Africa is written by Mindaugas Leika and published by International Monetary Fund. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 151353291X (ISBN 10) and 9781513532912 (ISBN 13).

The paper finds that supervisory stress tests are conducted in more than half of sub-Saharan African countries, particularly in western and southern Africa, and that the number of individual stress tests has grown exponentially since the early 2010s. By contrast, few central banks publish assessments of macro-financial linkages; the focus leans more toward discussing trends and weaknesses within the financial sector than on outside risks that may negatively affect its performance.
