LONDON, Oct 6 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Credit Suisse’s (CSGN.S) debt derivatives are still sending spooky signals, even though its equity is not. Yet its credit default swaps (CDS), contracts used to speculate on a company defaulting on its debt, are still bizarrely elevated, despite the absence of any bad news. Five-year swaps were trading at roughly 360 basis points on Thursday, compared with around 200 basis points in mid-September, according to Refinitiv data. Credit Suisse’s one-year CDSs, meanwhile, were quoted at around 600 basis points on Thursday morning, according to one trader. Investors willing to bet that Credit Suisse can survive would make handsome gains.

The fallout makes it even harder for Governor Andrew Bailey to convince markets he can tighten monetary policy. His decision on Wednesday to buy UK government debt and delay plans to sell down its 857 billion pound ($915 billion) bond portfolio carries big risks. Bailey’s goal is to cut holdings by 80 billion pounds over the next year. UBS analysts reckon issuance of gilts, after factoring in sales and redemptions from QT, will reach 355 billion pounds in the year ending March 2024. If Bailey can now tighten monetary policy without freaking out investors, his U-turn will have been worth the risk.
