Behind the Money

This week, Michela joins live from the FT’s Global Banking Summit in London. She sits down with three reporters and editors to analyse how the banking industry will shape up during Donald Trump’s second term in the White House. She’s joined by the FT’s US financial editor Brooke Masters and banking editor Ortenca Aliaj alongside Michael Klimes, investment banking and capital markets editor at The Banker. They discuss what banks stand to gain and lose, and what the industry may look like four years from now. 

The conversation was recorded on December 3 2024.

Wall Street dealmakers are itching for an M&A revival during president-elect Donald Trump’s second term. But as he prepares to move back to the White House, the picture appears more complicated. The FT’s head of Lex, John Foley, explains what dealmaking over the next four years might look like and the surprising similarities it could share with Joe Biden’s administration.

Not everyone will win in Trump's M&A revival

Every so often a cool new financial innovation springs up and gains popularity on Wall Street, promising juicy returns for investors. That’s why “synthetic risk transfers” or SRTs are in fashion. But ever since the financial crisis, trendy acronyms have also made some people nervous. And it’s recently caught the attention of organisations such as the IMF. The FT’s Alphaville editor Robin Wigglesworth explains why he’s been following this and whether regulators should be raising the alarm.
