SoftBank's Credit Default Swaps Hit a Three Year High Over Its OpenAI Bet
SoftBank's five-year credit default swaps jumped to about 384.6 basis points, the highest since 2023, after Sam Altman told Fortune that OpenAI won't IPO this year. Bloomberg estimates SoftBank now faces a funding gap of at least $20 billion as it tries to refinance a $40 billion bridge loan tied to its $64.6 billion OpenAI stake.
ChainCatcher reports that SoftBank Group's credit default swaps are hovering near three-year highs as traders assess their potential impact on OpenAI's funding plans. SoftBank has committed $64.6 billion to OpenAI, which is in early talks with investors for a new round of funding ahead of its initial public offering, valuing the company at over $1.2 trillion.
