The Bank of England has warned that non-bank financial institutions are often ill-equipped to handle crises, lacking the ability to anticipate the behavior of counterparties, investors, and markets during stressful periods. This assessment follows a year-long examination of how various market participants, including hedge funds and asset managers, would react to sudden shocks in global financial markets.
The Bank of England has raised concerns about private equity's growing involvement in the insurance sector, warning that it increases the risk of "fire sales" that could destabilize financial markets. Many US private equity firms are acquiring life insurers, while UK insurers are shifting risk to PE-backed reinsurers, which often pursue higher returns through riskier, illiquid investments.
The Bank of England's latest stress test reveals that the UK's major clearing houses, including ICE Clear Europe Ltd., LCH Ltd., and LME Clear Ltd., demonstrate resilience under severe market conditions. However, the results highlight vulnerabilities related to highly concentrated positions, particularly in scenarios involving the default of multiple members.
The RBI is closely monitoring the microloan market following its crackdown on the unsecured personal loan sector in November 2023. Recent developments have led to a temporary shift in the banking system's liquidity, pushing it into a deficit mode. Investors should stay alert to these evolving trends ahead of the MPC meeting in December.
UK mortgage approvals surged to a more than two-year high in October, with banks and building societies granting 68,300 home loans, surpassing economists' expectations of 64,500. This increase comes as buyers remain undeterred by concerns over tax hikes and high interest rates.
The latest rich list reveals the Safra family maintaining their position with assets of 22.5 billion francs, while the Hinduja family saw a rise to 10.5 billion francs amid legal troubles. Martin Ebner's wealth increased to 3.8 billion francs despite losses from Temenos, and the de Piciotto family is valued at 2.3 billion francs. Bank managers like Sergio Ermotti and Boris Collardi are estimated at around 175 million francs, with Ermotti benefiting from a substantial salary and share value at UBS.
BSE is set to change the expiry days for derivative contracts of Sensex, Bankex, and Sensex 50 starting January 1, moving weekly expiries to Tuesday and monthly expiries to the last Tuesday of the month. This shift aims to reduce volatility and free up capital for traders, allowing for greater flexibility in reinvesting and trading throughout the week. Experts believe this change will enhance trading activities by alleviating the concentration of expiries on consecutive days.
Heavyweight stocks, including Reliance Industries and HDFC Bank, rebounded on Friday, lifting benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty after a challenging period. The BSE Sensex rose by 721.31 points to close at 79,765.05, while the NSE Nifty gained 208.50 points, settling at 24,122.70. HDFC Bank's shares climbed 0.63 percent, nearing its 52-week high.
HSBC Holdings Plc is scaling back its credit card operations in China after struggling to achieve profitability since launching the service eight years ago. The bank has ceased issuing new cards and plans to wind down services for many customers, particularly standalone credit card clients who do not utilize other HSBC banking services, who will not have their cards renewed upon expiry.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has nominated his finance minister, Mihaly Varga, to lead the National Bank of Hungary starting in March, following the end of Governor Gyorgy Matolcsy’s term.
