I think the plan is to Make the bank his main bizz, dissolve axe cap and rehire everyone to Axelrod banks investment division that allows him to use bank deposits that are protected instead of institutional(FF fund) or murky money(grigor)
That would be nice. However investment banks can't take deposits, it's confusing because some investment banks also have retail banks but I don't see it happening so easily for axe capital
The reason Axe wants a bank is that BANKS PRINT MONEY. He has 10Billion, he can lend out 9Billion following the 10%minimum reserve that means he could lend out close to 19Billion or something like that and so on and so forth...
That's his dream but no he can't. I found he can only lend 3bn and actually I didn't take into account the affiliate limitations so it's even less than that
Axe forgot a basic fact. yes, banks get bailouts, but they also are regulated more than hedge funds. So breaking the law is punished severely, unlike the many misdemeanors he used to do with market manipulation.
The maximum amount available for loans from the Bank to its affiliates is limited to 10% of the Bank’s capital. So, source bank can lend to Axe Capital only $100 million if I am not mistaken.
@@InvestOrama :) I'm a bank investor. I am not a hedge fund manager. So, I don't know what the combine advantage will be. Andrew Sorkin (the scriptwriter) will know. lol Banks do not have a lot of advantages nowadays, especially after 2008. The story might still be before 2008 since it started at 9/11.
@@onlinestor yes! I think Axe s dream of a bank is something outdated! He hasn't kept up with the post 2008 regulatory overhaul. I'm thinking of better ideas to invest his money in for my next episode
Not a finance guy,but seen every part of billions and I love the way how the series dwell onto the dark financial life of wall street. I've always wanted to learn how to invest in stocks and have more than basics,but every time I get into details like this video I get lost Well done for the explanation mate ,you're a smart guy definitely, with all this explanation which I'm sure it makes you an expert,you can easily create your own hedge fund and go after Axelrod 😉
I love your work, but one small nitpick. Your voice over sounds off. The best way I can describe it is it sounds almost robotic, where it’s slightly broken and audio from words overlap with each other. Anyways, just wanted to let you know. Keep up the great work!
Always appreciate feedback. This time I recorded myself but audio is not my strength, maybe I should go back to my AI voice... From what you said looks like maybe I'm shortening the gaps between words too much
@@InvestOrama Oh no, it’s not you. You’re very articulate and can communicate your thoughts very well in an understandable way. I think the problem might be your mic or audio editing software. I personally prefer your narration over a robotic voice, but again it’s all your choice
I agree that Axe may have exaggerated the upside of being a bank. It’s not always protected. The Lehman brothers was not bailed out after the 2008 crash.
You need to consider TARP! Many banks got bailed out without any cost to the shareholders. Pure face value bad assets swop for cash, although The Central bank should have wiped out the shareholders.
@@InvestOrama that’s where the magic trick happens! The public gets misled because they think the fed is owned by congress. But the fed is majority controlled by the banks. That’s the real power in owning a bank- being part of the group that regulates and controls money. So TARP and policies like it will keep happening. That’s why Axe wants to own a bank!
@@InvestOrama “Govt and regulators” will never “learn” because banks control the Govt and regulators through the fed. Why break the boom bust cycle when it’s so great for banks?
As per my knowledge in my country I think axe wants to convert his hedge fund into a bank rather than just buy a bank. Once he does it, he can buy securities through the bank.
Yes I think that's his dream but then he'd be subject to banking regulations: Volcker rule, capital ratios, etc. You can't behave like a hedge fund with a bank
Do you even watch the show?? It’s extremely clear why he wants the bank & it’s also clear how get it, if you’ve been watching &/or understand what’s going on
@@InvestOrama he clearly wants the bank, so that he can use the chequing accounts to play in the market & since he’s already setup to win in the market, the risk is virtually nonexistent, since accounts are regulated! If you’ve been watching all the seasons, you’d know that he’s going to manipulate everyone in a “roundabout” way to get what he wants + screw his enemies! Speculating any other way is irrelevant/illogical
Yes he wants to do that of course 😭 but there are regulation s So he can invest directly (Volcker rule) Or lend money (Basel accord) It's all in there.... In the video!
@@InvestOrama you realize this is a TV show, with a goal to entertain the audience??! = the “roundabout” way, goes “around” regulations, no matter how far fetched = why I asked if you watch this show = if you’re right, what’s the point of the show??! #curious
@@DaFactsNoNonsense1713 I do realize this! The show is here to entertain us, and I'm trying to educate based on the show. The show is telling us that Axe is passionate to be a bank, and he'll try everything to do that ... and in season 1 Chuck was going to destroy Axe, it nearly happened but it didn't. And then Axe was going to destroy Chuck, and together they were going to win everything... It's wonderful entertainment but that makes it also fun to learn by understanding what's possible in real life or complete fantasy. One thing I enjoy about the show is that there are so many things that are worth discussing: nothing is completely silly!
He coulda been Lehman bros lol. Giant hedge fund with a little investment bank attached to it. Lehman even desperately tried this to stay alive in 2008 but in reverse of what axelrod wanted to do.
Actually being a bank in 21st century is a little outdated. With advent of block-chain, he will have no authority. Maybe 5 years having a bank is profitable with authority. But after that disruption is coming 😬🤔 What are your thoughts?
People don't even realize how much value you just provided. Great work!
👍
Now I can feel a bit smarter once the season resumes
If axe gets a bank I will be monitoring that capital adequacy ratio very closely
What is the name of the serie?
@@patrickkluivert7272 BILLIONS (from Showtime)

That would be nice. However investment banks can't take deposits, it's confusing because some investment banks also have retail banks but I don't see it happening so easily for axe capital
It could’ve happened much easier prior to 2008. He wouldn’t be allowed to invest remotely in the way he’d want to
Oh yes! I also suspect the series describe the hedge fund world of the 90s so it could make sense
Excelent work. But why not go for an insurance company instead?

Lending cheaply to another company you own also has a significant tax disadvantage through the arm’s length principle in transfer pricing
but watch the capital adequacy ratios!

Yes I think that's what he has in mind, but the rules that were set up after Lehman aimed exactly at preventing that
seems to be parallels from this similar with Alameda & FTX
