Abstract

The banking sector plays a pivotal role in the economic stability of any nation, and assessing the fragility of banks becomes paramount during times of crisis. This study focuses on the Tunisian banking landscape, employing innovative index-based methods to detect and evaluate fragility in the face of economic upheavals. The research combines a comprehensive analysis of financial indicators, market dynamics, and macroeconomic factors to construct a robust fragility index tailored to the unique characteristics of Tunisian banks. The methodology integrates both quantitative and qualitative metrics to gauge the vulnerability of the banking sector, providing a nuanced understanding of potential stress points. By identifying early warning signals through the proposed index, policymakers and financial institutions can proactively address emerging challenges, contributing to the resilience and stability of the banking sector in Tunisia. The study not only enhances the academic discourse on financial fragility assessment but also offers practical insights for regulatory bodies and industry stakeholders to strengthen the foundations of the Tunisian banking system in times of crisis.
