The FPC, at its meeting on Sep 20, judged that overall risks to the 

UK financial system stemming from the domestic environment were 

"standard", unchanged from its last assessment in Jun, though it warned 

that excessive weight was being placed on recent "benign" market 

conditions - both domestically and globally. UK consumer credit growth

continued to be earmarked as a pocket of risk, despite growth slowing 

recently, with regulatory "top-up" capital buffers set to be put in 

place for individual firms following the Bank's 2017 stress test. 

Globally, stability was also judged to be under threat from "material" 

indebtedness. The FPC cited financial vulnerabilities in China and 

corporate leverage levels in the USA, and geopolitical tensions.
