- the 130m loss is on just ONE client (management said the opposite on IR call)

Afaik UBS is the 1st to publish this new template showing benefits of banks internal models & how much the new Basel 4 floor is going to bite.
What's fascinating imo is the counterparty credit risk: models are so aggressive that they reduce "risk" by 78%!
Archegos anyone?

Which EU ctry will push to retaliate & which won't? To have a view I looked at banking exposure. The methodology: each country has a tariff intensity based on tariff % * % GDP on US exports, then I looked at SME REA of each bank in each country as proxy for risk. Results below
