European authorities Friday released results showing EU banks largely passed a round of government stress tests, with just a few institutions found to need modest amounts of new capital. Out of 91 banks, just seven failed the tests: Germany's Hypo Real Estate Holding, ATEbank (ATE.AT) in Greece and five small Spanish regional banks. But the overall strong grades--awarded to a banking system that for the last several months has lurched from crisis to crisis--raised questions over whether the month-long tests were tough enough to be judged credible.
