Popis: The purpose of the paper is to summarise and present the anti-crisis practices of a central bank during martial law in the country, based on the experience of the National Bank of Ukraine and the Bank of Israel. The research methodology is based on an analysis of reports, guidelines, statistical data, scientific articles, legislation bases, and other relevant materials. One of the methodological aspects of this study is a comparison of the knowledge acquired about the regulations implemented by the two central banks after the introduction of martial law in the countries. The objective is to identify potential lessons learned for the banking regulations of Ukraine and the State of Israel. The results of the study show that the practical implementation of stabilisation measures by central banks is crucial for achieving financial stability of the state both during and after wartime, as well as the ability to predict possible deepening of crises and minimise their consequences. The tools and methods used by these central banks differ. In particular, the NBU's main monetary policy instrument was foreign exchange interventions, while the BoI actively used the key policy rate. The proper formation of international currency reserves and the possibility of using them during a war-related crisis is critical for both countries. This fact confirms that crisis management has different types of scenarios. Each anti-crisis scenario is unique. This paper highlights the practical need for interaction between monetary and macroprudential policies of the central bank in wartime. It demonstrates various combinations of methods and instruments of the central bank's monetary policy. This study also shows the interdependence of the economies of these two countries. Practical implementation. This analysis provides insight into the anti-crisis activities of central banks during unpredictable periods in a country's life, namely, during martial law. At the present stage, banking systems do not often face the challenges of war. Therefore, studying each case is important for improving theoretical knowledge and deepening practical research. Value / Originality. The author of the study collected the experience and practices of stabilisation activities of the central banks of Ukraine and Israel during the war.
