What's moving, right now.
AI debt passed $450bn and now your funding costs more
The Bank of England's Financial Policy Committee published the record of its 25 September meeting and flagged debt-financed AI investment, opacity and "circular arrangements" as a growing threat to funding markets, while Reuters reported that AI borrowers in the riskier parts of US credit are now paying up for money.
