受全球疫情影响,美国和全球的不平等性已经达到了新的高度。不过不要担心,只要有游艇,你还是可以得到所需的贷款。
《金融时报》(the Financial Times)的一则新闻报道称,银行巨头瑞士信贷(Credit Suisse)已经将一些“超高净值”客户的贷款与游艇和私人飞机挂钩。如今,银行将把这些以游艇作为抵押物的贷款出售给大型对冲基金。
《金融时报》的报道称,自2014年以来,这家借贷银行一直在拓展其游艇抵押借贷业务。去年,这家银行以游艇抵押的未偿贷款金额已经超过了10亿美元。
然而,这一不同寻常的业务在近些年来变得摇摇欲坠,而且这些贷款也出现了大量的违约。2017年和2018年,瑞士信贷的游艇贷和飞机贷出现了12笔违约,其中约三分之一源于美国对俄罗斯财阀的制裁。
为了减少与这些贷款相关的一些风险,这家银行向多家对冲基金寻求帮助,将规模20亿美元的“飞机、游艇、房产和/或金融资产”担保贷款的一部分证券化。该交易的投资者讲演材料显示,为减少与贷款相关的高违约风险,瑞士信贷给出了11%的利率。
就在瑞士信贷采取这一举措之际,全球财富的不平等性已经达到了新高。最近的联合国报告显示,不断上升的财富不平等性如今影响了全球超过三分之二的民众,而且还将继续扩大至超过全球70%的人口。从全球层面来看,一名成年人的平均收入为23380美元,而当前全球最富有的10%人口则拿走了52%的收入。
全球半数最穷人口的收入仅占全球总收入的8%。全球不平等实验室(World Inequality Lab)发布的《全球不平等报告》称,说到以资产形式持有的财富(其中包括游艇和私人飞机),全球半数最穷人口的持有量仅占全球总量的2%,而最富有的10%人口则持有76%的财富。
全球第二大富豪杰夫·贝索斯最近以5亿美元的天价,购买了一艘大型风帆游艇。这笔钱足以支付21386人的全球年均收入。(财富中文网)

Inequality in the U.S. and worldwide has reached new heights, exacerbated by a global pandemic but don’t worry—your yacht might just cover whatever loans you need
Banking giant Credit Suisse has tied some of its loans to “ultra-high-net-worth” customers to their yachts and private jets, according to a new report by the Financial Times. Now it’s selling those yacht-backed loans to big hedge funds.
The lending company has expanded its lending against yachts since 2014, according to the FT report. The company’s outstanding loans on yachts exceeded $1 billion last year.
But the unusual business has become precarious in recent years and defaults on those loans have abounded. Credit Suisse saw 12 defaults on its yacht and aircraft loans in 2017 and 2018, and about a third of those came from U.S. sanctions against Russian oligarchs, according to the FT.
In an attempt to offload some of the risk associated with those loans, the bank appealed to a group of hedge funds to securitize a portion of their $2 billion in loans backed by “jets, yachts, real estate and/or financial assets.” They offered an 11% interest rate to mitigate the high-risk of default associated with them, according to an investor presentation for the deal.
The move comes as wealth inequality has reached new highs around the world. Rising inequality now affects more than two-thirds of people worldwide, and is growing for more than 70% of the global population, according to a recent UN report. At a global level the average income for an adult is $23,380, and the richest 10% of the global population currently take home 52% of the income.
The poorest half of the global population earn just 8% of the total global income. And when it comes to wealth held in assets (which would include yachts and private jets) the poorest half of the global population owns just 2% of the global total, and the richest 10% own 76% of all wealth, according to The World Inequality Report, produced by the World Inequality Lab.
Jeff Bezos, the world’s second wealthiest man, recently purchased a large sailing yacht for an eye-popping $500 million—enough to pay the average annual global salary of 21,386 people.
