A subscriber from “down under” sent a series of interesting links on blog posts published last year on Australia’s plans to be prepared for “bail-ins.” My thanks to our subscriber.
I anticipate that the plans are similar throughout the G-7 – certainly the Anglo-American world.
We are embarking on a unique experiment – managing a multi-trillion dollar interest rate swap derivatives book globally during a period of rising interest rates. We have never done this before. So it make sense the global banking industry would want to coordinate the protection of the global derivative book.
If you hear a quiet giant sucking sound, this could be it.
