Vol 3 Chapter 89: Give me 1 leverage

400 million pounds.
Even though Thomas Cook was full of uncomfortable heart, he was still excited by this number.
With so much money loaned out, the bonus that can be obtained will definitely be a huge number.
Moreover, as the CEO of Standard Chartered Bank, he is very clear that the true value of the shares held by Capital One, as long as there is no problem with international reputation, then there is no possibility of overdue bad debts.
Is there any business with lower risk than this?
No.
"John. Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course. The boss will be there for such a big thing, do you think I dare to make a joke? Besides, we have to buy 400 million pounds of three-month treasury bonds."
Loan, buy national debt?
What kind of operation is this?
Thomas Cook was full of doubts and could not understand what Shen Jiannan and his party were doing.
Long-term interest rates in the United Kingdom have always been low. Naturally, the yields of government bonds will not be much higher. Not only will you not make money with a loan to buy government bonds, but the yield ratio is even worse than investing in other assets.
But what does that matter?
British government bonds are world-renowned phnom penh bonds. With the Ministry of Finance backing, there is no risk of overdue losses.
Investing cash in national bonds is even safer than depositing in banks.
If all customers borrowed to invest in national bonds, there would be no possibility of bad debts for banks, and their performance would not explode.
Happiness comes too suddenly.
Thomas Cook's face couldn't help but twisted, trying his best to restrain the excitement.
"Thank you so much, Robert. I apologize for my previous attitude."
"Oh. Thomas, didn't I say that. I really didn't mean to blame you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know the boss, and I wouldn't have where I am today."
"..."
Banks are the ultimate institutions in the capital system.
As a bank, you can fool your customers with just one mouth, but you will never be fooled by the customer.
Soon, Thomas Cook suppressed the restlessness in his heart because of excitement, and took out the professional qualities of a banker.
Stockholding verification, risk verification.
Soon, under the concerted action of all employees, Thomas Cook determined the risk rating of Capital One.
There is no risk at all.
The loan collateral is the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, 14.85% of the total share capital, at least US$800 million at the current value of Standard Chartered, and the loan of £400 million is fully within the approved risk line set by the bank.
The purchase of national phnom penh bonds, the three-month maturity redemption bond, will not incur losses at all, that is to say, there is no possibility of overdue.
Is there any reason not to borrow money?
This is simply a door to door to make money for yourself.
Thomas Cook's eyes became very strange, he couldn't help but really believe that Robert John was thanking him.
Otherwise, such a large amount of business will receive the most solemn treatment no matter which bank you go to.
But also understandable.
As a major shareholder of a bank, the bank makes money and naturally can also enjoy dividends.
A capitalist who will never let go of any value.
As a result, there were no accidents.
It didn't take long for the bank to complete all loan procedures. After 400 million pounds in the first capital account, they directly bought 400 million pounds of three-month bearer short-term bonds.
Expected return, 3.2%.
Soon, Shen Jiannan and his party walked out of the bank gate with Thomas Cook's handing over the national debt certificates.
In the dark and shiny Rolls Royce, Yulia Sidorov and Qina Kanowski were leaning together drinking red wine, and they were excited when Shen Jiannan got in the car.
"Honey. Everything is going well."
"of course."
"It's amazing."
The two of them took wine glasses and kissed Shen Jiannan on the cheek excitedly.
With these 400 million pounds of British government bonds, everything will go smoothly.
The car slowly spoke silently.
Shen Jiannan sat grinningly between the two of them, wantonly enjoying the delicate and lingering fragrance within reach.
"Now. It's up to you."
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
City of London, HSBC headquarters.
A tall Russian girl swayed dizzying steps and walked into the bank hall.
Her delicate features are three-dimensionally distinct, her fair skin is as bright as snow, and her blushing lips are particularly moving. Because she is wearing a dark black sunglasses, she licks a desire to explore.
It was Gina Kanowski who came to the bank to work.
Heart of beauty in everyone.
When Qina walked into the HSBC lobby, countless pairs of eyes cast over.
The white location of the peaks and mountains, a string of diamond necklaces exuding dreamy colors, made her as beautiful as a princess, and her stunning and flawless face made some people feel that they were falling in love at first sight.
Love always has magical powers.
Someone can't sit still.
A handsome young man with blond hair gathered up, walked out of the crowd.
"Hi. Beauty, can you meet me?"
Qina Kanowski kept walking and uttered a word very simply.
"roll!"
"Beauty, you are too..."
Qina Kanowski, who is the daughter of the director of the Polar Bear Federal Security Service, how could she be molested? The handsome young man didn't finish his words. Two short-haired female bodyguards in suits and ties walked past Qina and stared coldly at the twenty-five boys who dared to block the way.
The predecessor of the Polar Bear Federal Security Agency, but the KGB, the guard who can follow Qina, has a lot of lives on his hands.
A kind of cold fear made the blond young man irritating, as if he had encountered a natural enemy, he felt a kind of extreme cold when he made eye contact with two ordinary female bodyguards with short hair.
This is a shameful thing, but the handsome blond guy simply raised his hand to express that he was not hostile, and kept backing away.
No way, he clearly saw that the female bodyguard's hand had touched her waist, and she could think of what she was going to do with her ass.
Acknowledge or swear words to save yourself a little face?
There is no choice at all.
Because this is London, England.
The oldest capitalist country.
"Sao Rui. I love Sao Rui. Please forgive me for being rude."
"roll."
The young man dared not make any rebuttals, and walked out of the bank in disgrace. Although he felt his face, it was like being rubbed by someone on the ground.
The bank lobby manager noticed the situation here and ran over quickly.
"My distinguished lady, I am sorry that you have been harassed. I am Oliver Shackleton, the lobby manager of the bank. I don't know what I can do for you?"
"Oh. Hello, I am the director of Kamandi Investment Company. My company has encountered a little difficulty in turnover. I hope you can help me."
"My distinguished lady~EbookFREE.me~please follow me."
"..."
Almost at the same time, Yulia Sidorov walked into the Bank of Scotland with four professional female bodyguards.
Her delicate features, petite and exquisite figure, and luxurious and noble dress immediately attracted the attention of many people in the bank.
The bank lobby manager did not dare to delay, and walked over respectfully at the first time.
"Hi, distinguished and beautiful lady. I'm Nelson, the lobby manager. I don't know what I can do for you?"
"Hello. My company is experiencing a little difficulty, I wonder if your bank can help me?"
"Miss, please come with me. We need to know the specifics of your company."
