If you didn't need another signal for the "Golden Age of Private Credit" well...here it is! Higher capital = banks backing out of riskier businesses = shadow banks (private credit funds included) snapping up the market share For the average person, this means debt will become more expensive and there will be less liquidity (maybe) Banks are deposit-funded and can lend at cheaper rates than most private credit funds who have a fiduciary responsibility to meet return hurdles established by LPs (typically 8-15%).

Patrick Reid and Adam Gazzoli have 35+ years FX experience. We have traded the Wall Street Crash (1987), ERM Crisis (1992), Asia Crisis (1998), Global Financial Crisis (2007/8), Brexit(2016), The Scottish Referendum and many US Elections. Back in 2016, everyone thought entrepreneur and celebrity Donald Trump did not stand a chance. People viewed him as a clown, a real outsider. Then the votes came in and the rest is history whilst USDJPY was 101. One month later as families sat down to tuck into Christmas dinner the USDJPY had rallied 17 big figures. That's 1,700 pips in just four weeks! What changed everything was the Victory Speech. We knew this by having lots of experience in live events with massive volatility. We can, of course, read the market. But we also know who the buyer might be down there. We use technical analysis, risk, and macro to make the call.

Therefore, we could see volatility and weakness in GBP ahead of and during the election, particularly if the gap between the two main parties narrows. 📈That said, markets seem ready for an election. And with the expected outcome of a Labour victory looking highly likely, the volatility may prove minimal.
