Banks to record crypto transactions in Australia due to SVB crises<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Australian Financial Review reported on March 21 that the Australian Prudential Regulatory Authority (APRA) has begun demanding banks to identify their exposures to startups and crypto-related enterprises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The regulator has asked banks to strengthen their reporting on crypto assets<\/a> and send daily updates to the APRA, according to a report quoting three individuals with knowledge of the situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to insiders, the agency intends to collect additional information and understanding regarding banking exposures to cryptocurrencies and associated dangers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to reports, the new regulations are part of the APRA's heightened oversight of the banking sector in the wake of recent significant breakdowns in the global financial system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UBS Group agreed on March 19 to acquire its failing competitor Credit Suisse for $3.2 billion following Credit Suisse's weekend collapse. The acquisition was one of the most recent failures in the banking industry, following SVB and Silvergate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barrenjoey analyst Jonathan Mott reportedly told clients in a note that the position for Australian banks “remains steady” but cautioned that trust might be quickly shaken, putting pressure on bank margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our channel checks suggest that deposits are not being removed from institutions of any size,” Mott stated, adding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cBut this is a crisis of confidence and credit spreads and cost of capital will continue to rise. At a minimum, this will add to the margin pressure the banks are facing, while credit quality will continue to deteriorate.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The announcement was made shortly after the Australian Bankers Association\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> initiated a cost of living inquiry to examine the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical concerns on Australians. An analysis of rising inflation suggested that more than 186 U.S. banks are at risk of a comparable shutdown if depositors opt to withdraw all funds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
