Fed: More than 700 U.S. banks are at risk because of large float
More than 700 U.S. banks are facing "significant safety and solvency" risks due to large unrealized balance sheets that have reported losses of more than 50% of their capital, according to the Fed report.
The Fed pointed to higher interest rates as the catalyst for losses at these U.S. banks. Changes in monetary policy and rising interest rates have had a negative impact on banks' balance sheets, and the financial position of many banks has become more precarious. While the banks have been taking steps to prevent further losses over the past few months, large floating losses on banks' balance sheets have limited their ability to lend and meet obligations.
In addition, higher-than-expected deposit outflows and limited emergency funding could force these banks to make difficult decisions, such as relying on more foreign exchange reserves. Therefore, U.S. banks need to take necessary measures to reduce risks and protect their own safety and solvency
