SBNY Signature Bank exposure to FTX
Updated
On December 21 Fitch Ratings revised Signature Bank's (SBNY) 'BBB+' Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) Rating Outlook to Negative from Stable.
On Jan 10, a team of analysts led by Ken Usdin downgraded SBNY Signature Bank to Hold from Buy, and slashed their target price to $124 from $185.
SBNY Signature Bank said that it had an exposure to FTX of less than 0.1%.
They also announced a reduction is crypto exposure, of which Jefferies analysts said:
“Signature Bank’s decision to shrink its crypto deposits by $8 billion to $10 billion and replacing with wholesale borrowings at 4.25% will drive a significant net interest margin reset in the coming quarters,”, which is a key profitability metric for banks.
Looking at the SBNY Signature Bank options chain ahead of earnings , I would buy the $75 strike price Puts with
2023-6-16 expiration date for about
$4.45 premium.
If the options turn out to be profitable Before the earnings release, i would sell at least 50%.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.
