Los bancos de la zona euro expuestos al dólar necesitan más colchones: BCE

Los bancos de la zona euro con grandes negocios en dólares deberían reforzar sus colchones de liquidez y capital para resistir cualquier contracción de la divisa estadounidense, dijo el Banco Central Europeo este miércoles.

El BCE ha estado diciendo a los bancos que vigilen su exposición al dólar desde que los aranceles del presidente de EU, Donald Trump, y su presión sobre la Reserva Federal sacudieron la confianza en la moneda de reserva mundial durante la primavera boreal.

    Bancos europeos se enfrentan a un riesgo de crisis sin precedentes: BCE

En la última Revisión de Estabilidad Financiera del BCE, el mensaje se agudizó: el puñado de grandes bancos de la zona euro con actividad en dólares necesita prepararse. "Podría ser necesario un margen de capital para absorber (...) una mayor volatilidad de las divisas y el riesgo de crédito de contraparte", dijo el BCE en el informe semestral. 

"Los bancos deberían mantener activos líquidos en dólares para contrarrestar las salidas y actuar como intermediarios estabilizadores".

La Revisión de Estabilidad Financiera, elaborada por los expertos del BCE, no supone recomendaciones vinculantes para los bancos bajo su supervisión. Sin embargo, subraya la profunda preocupación de los dirigentes monetarios por la liquidez en dólares. 

Según el BCE, las operaciones en dólares se concentran en los pesos pesados mundiales del bloque. Se trata de BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank, Crédit Agricole, Groupe BPCE e ING, Banco Santander y Société Générale.

El negocio suele incluir el endeudamiento en los mercados monetarios estadounidenses para financiar fondos de cobertura o la venta de "swaps" de divisas a aseguradoras, fondos y empresas que cubren su exposición al dólar.

Para compensar su propio riesgo cambiario, estos bancos suelen tomar el lado opuesto con prestamistas globales a través de "swaps" que rara vez aparecen en los balances.

"La refinanciación de estas posiciones puede resultar complicada en periodos de tensión en los mercados de "swaps" de divisas", afirma el BCE.

Un escenario de pesadilla —no detallado en la revisión— sería que la Reserva Federal cerrara su línea de liquidez de emergencia al BCE, eliminando un respaldo en el que los bancos han confiado desde la crisis financiera.

Por el momento, el BCE sólo ve un desajuste "limitado" entre activos y pasivos en dólares, ya que algunos bancos utilizan acuerdos de recompra (repos) para alinear los vencimientos. Pero advirtió de que estas estrategias "no eliminan por completo el riesgo de liquidez".

"En un escenario extremo, las salidas de dólares podrían agotar la capacidad de los bancos para obtener liquidez mediante repos, "swaps" de divisas y la venta de dichos activos", dijo el BCE.

Los bancos de la zona euro tenían 681,000 millones de euros (788,530 millones de dólares) en títulos en dólares y prestaron el equivalente a 712,000 millones de euros en la divisa estadounidense a finales del año pasado, según datos del BCE.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
