7:18 am
financial support is simply not going to be able to pay those depositors. so someone is going to have the cosa gap and it looks like the swiss national bank is going to have to step of the fray and actually put some cash on the table. rather than simply having pronouncements about moral support for credit suisse. what would the impact of such a bill out be on the european market? if a swiss bank out of all countries would have to be bailed out? well, i think for the, for the swiss financial market center is going to be an absolute catastrophe. i think it has been already, so people have put their money into switzerland in large amounts in the private banking and wealth management spaces and asset management. in large part because system has this idea of stability and conservative investment of your assets and capital preservation. and that's the kind of clients that are swiss banks of attracted, that's all. now put to question, credit suisse credit suisse is an incalculable damage to switzerland's reputation as
7:19 am
a financial center. and i think was 1st national bank and this was government are fully aware of that and want to make sure that this doesn't go any further. now this is all happening, of course, in the context of to bang collapses that we've seen happening in the us. this past week and how far is this related to what happened to the as me be, for example? well, i didn't have any direct connection to the credit suisse and as v b, i didn't credit suisse had a big exposure to silicon valley bank at all. i don't think the swiss bank had large deposits with as we be. so it's not a direct connection. but i think was happening overall is that we're seeing a, an environment where we had a very, very low interest rates for very extended period of time. and that's true in the u . s. and esther in europe as well in switzerland bit less the the s and b has been a bit more careful. thompson's management of this was currency, but over was in very, very low interest rates for a long time. and now suddenly we've seen interest rise very quickly, particularly in the u. s. and that is gonna break some things that's going to break
7:20 am
. some banks are very dependent on interest rates is a very core part of their production process. and as you see big changes that some banks are not going to be able to keep up and compound with that, i think this a chris was, has done some hold the bunch of damage to itself outside of anything as v b is done. so or anything related as v vi. so there's been some monumental missteps, credit suisse in terms of risk management in terms of investments. and that's came back to haunt the bank. now you mentioned the interest rate aspect in the story here. now the easy is expected to increase interest rates again tomorrow, and analysts expect half a percentage point increased. do you think that today's events might factor into the easy these considerations for tomorrow? stephanie, i don't, i don't think the easy b wants to give impression there. panicking and responding to the latest news and by the minute making decisions about where to put interest rates. so i think they want to convey sort of
7:21 am
a sense of greatest ability that and thought about how they're going to approach interest rates. that being said, there's going to be tremendous pressure on them now on the e. c, b, and on the fed who are both making decisions as weak about and strengths to not continue with these big increases and interest rates. because there has to be some losses involved in that. basically anyone who's sitting on bonds a bond portfolio or a loan portfolio like banks or is going to have to take losses as a result of these increases. so the banking industry is screaming out for the central banks not to continue with these increases the central banks, on the other hand, have to still fight inflation. and the only way they can do that is by continuing increase interest rates. so the central banks, the e, c, b, and the fed included on a very, very difficult bind right now. difficult times for a central bank. thank you, dr. young randy. now let's get the latest from wall street on this. and these developments and teddy australia joins me from new york teddy, have there been recruit repercussions from the banking self in europe, in the us. well, credit suisse is
7:22 am
a global financial institution. so it's of greater consequence, right? than silicon valley bank than signature bank, which we did see fail this week and cause broader turmoil in the market here in the united states. now, the pronouncement pronouncement by the swiss national bank to support credit suisse, is going to pair some losses. however, we have seen some damage here in the united states. the s s p has dropped a point 7 percent. now really, the banks are the ones that have hot hit, the hardest goldman city group. sliding regional bank certainly sliding. but what we're looking at is investors panicking, looking around at the financial sector at s b, b at signature bank at credit suisse and saying this is incredibly unstable or pulling out their money and trying to find investments that will pair their losses . now we were just speaking about the difficult situation that central banks find
7:23 am
themselves and right now that you see be especially because of the interest rate. hi, tamara, how might the fed react to this volatile economy? well, the fed has 2 objectives, right? it's to insure a financial stability in the economy and to tame inflation. now the ladder of which it has been doing from unprecedented rate hikes here in the united states and it does appear to be bringing down inflation. however, it is causing some financial instability. we can certainly say it contributed to the failure of silicon valley bank and subsequently signature bank. there are also some issues there about the fed supervisory issues, but with inflation, right? we have seen inflation cooling here in the united states. the fed isn't fully happy with the pace, which is why their expectations that they would continue to high rate. however, now with the financial instability we're seeing there are bets that the fed is going to do a low hike or a no hike after they're meeting. next week,

edge when it's new, when you didn't go with the new south korea, the top 10 global energy consumer, with energy intensive industries, especially electronics, ship building, and petrochemical, driving the country's economy. reducing energy costs is paramount. russia's invasion of ukraine is at least partially influence increases in the cost of those energy inputs. so 3 is public utilities reactive. raising prices with the cost of home electricity spiking almost 30 percent in the past year. but so 3 is not only relying on nuclear energy in its own country. it also exports reactors, for example, to the united arab emirates in february. the 3rd apr a $1400.00 reactor will begin operation there with another to follow. so 3 also hopes to compete in the new market featuring smaller modular reactors with hopes to capitalize on its 20000000000 dollar
