    question
    1) what happens to the underlying assets that the bonds usually given on?
    for instance in 2008 the houses would the ownership of the properties be passed on up the chain to the insurance bank issuing the cds.
    2) is there a derivative market for cds, where a third party without owning the bond can pay a premium to the insurance bank for payment if the bonds fail. even if they don't own the bonds.
    asking as saw somewhere someone say insurance banks sold cds several times over on the same securities like a derivative trade.

    @fourseasons2349 6 років тому

    Please clarify...is the insuring institution who receives the premium payments insuring the agreed upon value of the bonds because you mentioned that bond values go up and bond values go down. Fed raises interest rates and my bond is valued less as it's yield is less than that which the market is paying today....or are they paying an agreed upon value should the market tank..in other words you pay me a premium of $x on a quarterly basis and I insure that the $1.00 bond will pay out, if defaulted, say by no less than 70 cents on the original face amount of the bond?

    what you are not saying is that an investor can buy cds without having an asset to cover. it's like you can buy insurance on a house that you don't own. in this case, you earn your money when the house is burning, not when the house is well managed. if it's not a weapon of mass destruction, what is it...

    Does the owner of the CDS get to collect the insurance payout if the country is bailed out by the central bank? Because if they get bailed out then the bonds are still good.

  • @JPJPR
    @JPJPR 8 років тому +2

    Incomplete depiction at the beginning. CDS aren't only for Investors, they are also for Investors investing on the original Investors investments liquidity, or more likely against it. That's where the mass destruction comes in. Ballooning Debt Obligations because the Insurers got greedy for more and more basis points without ever thinking too long or hard about the incurred obligations. So if a major former highly rated investment like a nation state - e.g. Greece - threatens to go under and force the Insurers (among them the big banks) to pay out the side bets who were jacked up gigantically in the first place. Because the higher the insured investment the higher the basis point premium the insurers got. They just all bet like idiots and now try to hold Europe hostage by telling everyone the lie that everyone's economy will tank if the incompetent bastards that are those piece of shit banks/insurers go the way of the dodo. And instead of letting the losers go bust, our governments have propped them up by propping up their investments - e.g. Greece. And propping up is just too nice a term for what happened there. Europe collectively fucked Greece and the Greek people up their collective ass by badgering the Greek government into implementing misguided austerity bullshit over sensible reforms. Just so the fat cats at the esteemed financial institutions weren't outed as the fucking frauds they were. They got greedy and our nation states are footing the bill through the EU financial bureaucracy. The only right solution would have been for the European nations to band together and issue securities for the citizen investors and nationalize the banks or better yet let them go bust for the shit they pulled and supplant them with more neutral bureaucracies or more tightly regulated new banks.
    Yes, Credit Default Swaps can be benign and sensible when done right. But they aren't called weapons of (financial) mass destruction for shits and giggles.
    Bad video.

  • @dogoku
    @dogoku 8 років тому

    Blaming this whole problem on Greece's own greed/stupidity is wrong, given the shitty situation they were put in when joining the euro, along with all the other countries in Europe that are currently at risk. The euro was a failure from the beginning, because it removed the power from countries to control their own currency to save their economy. This is exactly what happened to Greece which now became the scapegoat for this whole mess. Mark Blyth explains this very well in his talks "Austerity - History of a dangerous idea" and "Global Trumpism"

    • @WTFicey
      @WTFicey 7 років тому +3

      This whole mess IS essentially Greece's own greed though. Yes, any country that joins the euro essentially gives up their monetary policy and therefore unable to adjust interest rates and other financial variables, however they still have control over their FISCAL policy which is why the euro will eventually fail. ( I give it 1-4 years before failure, more towards 1 if Angela Merkel loses the Germany elections ).
      Now when it comes to Greece, their culture is to not collect tax (which is absolutely true) - "you would be an idiot to pay your taxes in Greece" (this came from my financial economics professor). So the Greek government have the ability to borrow on the capital (bond) markets using, effectively, Germany's credit card (EURO) and therefore bypassing the 15% they would have been charged on their loans/bonds and now getting charged the 2% that any good, credible country would have been charged like Germany or France.
      You are correct that the euro is a failure from the begining, however, it isn't because it removed the power from countries to control their own currency. It is because it doesn't control their fiscal policy as well.
      THE BOTTOM LINE? You need a harmonised monetary, fiscal and banking system and free moment of capital to make the euro work, and sadly, that will never happen.
