A French bank was almost destroyed by Jerome Kerviel who cost Societe Generale France €4.9 billion, which, if he is required to repay will take 177,000 years at €26,000, his present annual salary. Monsieur Kerviel claims his bosses knew about his share dealings.

Could a bank bankrupt a country?

Anglo Irish Bank almost destroyed Ireland financially. Irish officials from NAMA (National Asset Management Agency), NTMA (National Treasury Management Agency) and the Financial Regulator examined Allied Irish Bank’s impaired loan and property portfolio in September 2010, thereby confirming the bank would require €6.5 billion to revitalise it over the next three months. Conversely €29.3 billion is the cost of winding down failed Anglo Irish Bank. This payment occurs on the 2010 balance sheet once off and is not a recurring charge, fortunately.

Black Thursday

Labour Party T.D. (M.P.) Joan Burton described these announcements on 30th September as Black Thursday. The yields on Irish ten year bonds surged to 6.78% in late September compared to just 4.5% six months earlier demanding an important strategic decision last Wednesday, 29th September. The NTMA suspended its monthly fund raising exercise on behalf of the state to resume in January 2011. Initial reaction on 1st October resulted in Irish government bonds falling to 6.3%.

Bond Holders

Senior bond holders with €4 billion Anglo Irish Bank debt could not be detached from the bank’s depositors, this senior debt cannot be dishonoured. The Irish government could negotiate shared losses with senior bond holders who make money from governments under financial pressure.
