Summary/Abstract: In this text, the author examines the concept of financial stability and its importance in the public interest, particularly in the context of the European Union (EU). He mainly outlines the core measures in the EU set for maintaining financial stability, including regulation and supervision, supervisory bodies and institutions, financial assistance funds, and monetary policy. The author emphasizes the critical role of financial stability in ensuring households’ and businesses’ access to credit and promoting economic growth, job creation, and rising standards of living. He argues that maintaining financial stability is the key responsibility of central banks and financial regulators and is necessary for achieving broader goals. The author concludes that further multidisciplinary research is needed to fully understand the complex interactions among the various components of the financial stability framework in the EU and to develop more effective policies for maintaining financial stability.
