Let (X, Y ) be a couple of Banach lattices of measurable functions on T × Ω having the Fatou property and satisfying a certain condition ( * ), which makes it possible to consistently introduce the Hardy-type subspaces of X and Y . We show that the bounded AK-stability property and the BMO-regularity property are equivalent for such couples. If either the lattice XY is Banach, or both lattices X 2 and Y 2 are Banach, or Y = L p with p ∈ {1, 2, ∞}, then the AK-stability property and the BMO-regularity property are also equivalent for such couples (X, Y ).
