    Trigger warning: the AT1 debate risks addressing the wrong problem | IFR (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Imagine a bucket with a small hole in it. Finding a faster way to pour water in may keep it full for longer, but it does not fix the leak. You have answered the question of how to keep the bucket full without addressing why the water is disappearing in the first place. Decision scientists describe this as a Type III error: finding a solution to the wrong problem. For those engaged in post-financial crisis banking reform, Type III errors are an occupational hazard. Nowhere more so than in Switzer

    Nvidia’s US$500bn plan to fill the AI financing gap is wishful thinking | IFR (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    If projections about investment in AI infrastructure have turned into a bidding war, it’s one that PwC is leading – thanks to some brave extrapolation – with a prediction that cumulative spending will hit at least US$31.6trn by 2050. But to my mind the overall financing requirement is not the interesting aspect here, mainly because there’s a degree of fantasy in all of this. The interesting question is how much gets pushed into credit markets, and on what terms. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huangâ€

    Anthropic’s US$35bn infrastructure financing: when one plus one equals zero | IFR (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Imagine you have three coins on a table. Two show heads and one tails. A move consists of turning over two coins. How many moves are required to end up with two tails and one head? The answer is that it cannot be done. Turning over two coins can change the number of heads by either zero or two, but never by one. Mathematicians call this parity. In a system concerned only with whether a number is odd or even, two changes cancel each other out. Put differently, one plus one equals zero. Convention

    Bank of England’s 20bp capital tweak won’t reach the high street | IFR (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Will 20bp light up the UK economy? This is not a lightbulb joke, but a serious question. Bank regulatory reform is often debated in terms of changes to ratios and buffers, but ultimately its value should be measured by what reaches the real economy. Does a mortgage become cheaper? Does a corporate loan price differently? Does a bank keep lending when conditions deteriorate? The Bank of England estimates that its latest proposals governing regulatory capital would reduce the leverage ratio requir

    The fraying consensus on bank capital: same Basel, different accents | IFR (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    For nearly two decades there was an unusually strong global consensus on bank regulation focused on one objective: preventing a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis. That consensus is now fraying as national regulators balance their individual economic structures, growth objectives and most recent banking experiences. The US has lowered the leverage ratio requirement for its global systemically important banks; Switzerland is proposing substantially higher capital requirements for UBS following t
