RE:RE:RE:UK debt reaches 100% of GDP Global debt is certainly a concern. I have no idea at all where this will be in a few years. But, in the near term I would argue that with rates coming down the weight of all that debt is certainly lifting.
BK is mostly Canadian banks, some US and nothing in the UK. If we want to talk about what will likely have the greatest effect on them then I would say the recent mortgage changes by the Liberal government is more relevent than news about UK debt levels. The Liberals just increased amortizations for first time buyers to 30 years beginning Dec 15 and the CMHC insurance level to 1.5 million. This will help re-light the stressed real estate market. Good for Canada. Good for banks.
