Summary

Aruba has a sizeable financial sector, dominated by commercial banks that are generally well capitalized and hold ample liquidity buffers. Within the context of a conservative business model, capital adequacy and liquid assets to total assets ratios have been around double the regulatory minima. Banks are profitable and before the pandemic the NPL ratio was at a moderate level. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the NPL risks increased, but have remained within acceptable ranges.
