Britain's top seven lenders have passed the Bank of England's stress tests, the central bank said Tuesday in its latest health check on the sector.

The PRA tested the impact of a sharp slowdown in Chinese economic growth, a shrinking eurozone economy, and slumping commodity prices with oil tumbling to $38 per barrel.
