Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. The 220 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: only good outcome is raising the debt ceiling. That is 221 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 2: yet another warning from Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who is 222 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: cautioning on the catastrophic effects of a potential US debt default. 223 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 2: Yellen says congressional leaders are running out of time and 224 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 2: options to set aside their differences and find common ground 225 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: so the government can pay its bills. Janet Yellen sat 226 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,959 Speaker 2: down for an exclusive interview with Bloomberg's and Marie Hoarder 227 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: this morning at the G seven gathering in Japan to 228 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: discuss the debt ceiling and other issues facing the US. 229 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 6: Let's bring you that discussion right now. 230 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 15: Unfortunately for you, in a way, what is looming over 231 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 15: this G seven meeting is these concerns coming out of Washington, 232 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 15: the debt ceiling negotiations, as well as still tremors in 233 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 15: the banking industry. 234 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 7: I want to start with the debt ceiling. 235 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 10: Sure, of course Wall Street is very. 236 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 7: Concerned about this. 237 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 15: There is that X state approaching that you laid out 238 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 15: potentially as soon as June first. But there's an assumption 239 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 15: on Wall Street that if there's no negotiated deal after 240 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 15: June first, Treasury will still maintain payments on securities. Is 241 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 15: that assumption correct? 242 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 10: Look, you know, all I can say is that there 243 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 10: is no satisfactory solution for the United States, a solution 244 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 10: that will be good for the economy and financial markets. 245 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 10: Other than Congress acting to raise the debt ceiling. There 246 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 10: are potential different paths that could be taken if that 247 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 10: doesn't happen. But there is not a single thing that 248 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 10: can be done that will save the United States from 249 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 10: considerable economic and financial damage. 250 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 15: But this planned was outlined back in twenty eleven, and 251 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 15: you were there at the FMC meeting about it. 252 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 7: It's said that. 253 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 15: Treasury principles and securities would be paid. Is this something 254 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 15: that at least for contingency plan has been discussed with 255 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 15: the president. 256 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 10: So my understanding I was at the FED in twenty 257 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 10: eleven is that this plan was never presented to the 258 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 10: President and never approved. 259 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 15: And would you present it now? 260 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 7: Look, we would. 261 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 10: We were working full time to work with Congress to 262 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 10: raise the debt ceiling. That's where our focus is. We 263 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 10: know that the only good outcome is one in which 264 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 10: Congress act acts, as it has many times, almost eighty 265 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 10: times since nineteen sixty, to. 266 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 7: Raise the debt ceiling. 267 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 10: What global markets and American households and businesses need to 268 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 10: see is that we have a Congress that's committed to 269 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 10: paying the bills that we've incurred as a consequence of 270 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 10: our legislation, that we're not a dead beat country. And 271 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 10: if Congress fails to do that, it really impairs our 272 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 10: credit rating. We have to default on some obligation, whether 273 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 10: it's treasuries or payments to Social Security recipients. That's something 274 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 10: America hasn't done since seventeen eighty nine, and we shouldn't 275 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 10: start now. So we've not discussed what to do if 276 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 10: that doesn't occur with the President. Our focus is on 277 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 10: getting it done. 278 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 15: Because, as you know, treasuries are the bedrock of a 279 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 15: global financial system, and the asset managers I speak to 280 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 15: the investors, they don't have the luxury of not contingency planning, 281 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 15: So at this point should they assume that debt may 282 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 15: not be serviced if there's no deal. 283 00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:04,239 Speaker 10: Look, if Congres raise the debt ceiling, we face economic 284 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 10: and financial catastrophe. 285 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 7: One way or the other. 286 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 10: And that's why our focus is on making sure the 287 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 10: Congress does raise the debt ceiling. I feel that that's 288 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 10: something we're going to succeed at doing, and we're working 289 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 10: hard to make sure that that gets done. 290 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 15: As we get closer to June first, will you alert 291 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 15: Congress on a more precise date? 292 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 10: Yes, I will update Congress as we have available information. 293 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 15: But anything new now or still June first. 294 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 10: Well, what I've said is early June, and potentially as 295 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 10: early as June one. As we get closer, I may 296 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 10: be able to provide more refined guidance. But you know, 297 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 10: there is a lot of uncertainty about the exact level 298 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 10: of cash balances and payments that we have to make 299 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 10: from day to day, and so there remains a level 300 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 10: of uncertainty about precisely when we would run out of 301 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 10: cash to be able to pay the government's bills. 302 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 15: Jamie Diamond was on Bloomberg TV yesterday and he said 303 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 15: he set up a war room for contingency planning. Are 304 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 15: you actively speaking to executives. 305 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 10: I have talked, not within the last few weeks, but earlier, 306 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 10: around the time in January when I sent my first letter, 307 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 10: I talked to a number of bank executives. More recently, 308 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 10: I've talked to leaders of business businesses in different sectors 309 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 10: of the economy, and I will be meeting with senior 310 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 10: bankers next week when I get back. But I want 311 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 10: to understand how they're thinking about the debt ceiling, and 312 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 10: what I'm hearing is that it is a grave source 313 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 10: of uncertainty. That is one of the things that businesses 314 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 10: are really concerned about. One of the biggest sources of 315 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 10: uncertainty in terms of many big American businesses. 316 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 7: That's where we're hearing too at Bloomberg. 317 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 15: How frustrated are you potentially that these bank executives are 318 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 15: speaking to are not putting pressure on Congress, particularly Republicans. 319 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 10: Well, you know, Wall Street executives and American business people 320 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 10: have always spoken out about their concerns about the debt sealing, 321 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 10: and I think it's appropriate for them to talk about 322 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 10: how they see the debt sealing is impacting the American 323 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 10: economy and the global economy. So those voices, you know, 324 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 10: we want to hear voices of people who will be 325 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 10: affected by this. 326 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 15: On top of all this, there's still some tremors in 327 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 15: the banking system. In two months almost to the date, 328 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 15: we've had four US lenders fail, But the administration continuously 329 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 15: says that the banking sector is sound and resilient. Is 330 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 15: that a fair assessment when you look at the regional 331 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 15: banking sector, Well. 332 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 10: The regional banks have been under some stress, but I 333 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 10: think the banks that have failed have had some very 334 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 10: unique characteristics that have made them vulnerable. The banks that 335 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 10: failed tended to have substantial losses marked to market losses 336 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 10: on their whole to maturity portfolios. So although their regulatory 337 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 10: capital wasn't impaired, their tangible equity was diminished. And they 338 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 10: simultaneously had a very high proportion of uninsured deposits. And 339 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 10: that profile is not very common. But look, a lot 340 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 10: of banks, particularly regional banks, are seeing their earnings come 341 00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 10: under pressure. The amount that they're having to pay for 342 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 10: deposits is rising, and in many cases their investments are 343 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 10: at lower interest and their stock prices are coming under pressure. 344 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 10: But most banks now, even including the ones that are 345 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 10: seeing pressure on their stock prices, have solid liquidity, would 346 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 10: be able to manage paying off on insured depositors if 347 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 10: they were to flee. 348 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 15: Are you confident no other regional or small lenders will fail? 349 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 10: Well, look, I don't want to talk about the situations 350 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 10: of individual banks, but what I see is a banking 351 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 10: system that overall is well capitalized, still has very solid earnings, 352 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 10: and we've improved the available liquidity to the banking system 353 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 10: and think that banks are going to be able to 354 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 10: survive this. But you know, we're monitoring this situation very 355 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 10: very carefully. 356 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 15: The other big elephant in the room at this G 357 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 15: seven meeting is, of course China, and you spoke about 358 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 15: this yesterday, how you're working with your peers to look 359 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 15: out outbound investment potentially when it comes to China. This 360 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 15: would add on to what the United States has already 361 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 15: done with export controls and sanctions. And you recently gave 362 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 15: this speech about China and how the US views economic policy, 363 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 15: and what you made clear is that national security concerns 364 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 15: will be paramount even if it becomes to economic concerns. 365 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 15: So I'm curious why the US still has tariffs on 366 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 15: China if that is an economic benefit to many US consumers. 367 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 10: Well, look, you know there was a so called three 368 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 10: oh one action that was filed against China for unfair 369 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 10: trade practices, and China wis fan guilty of three oh 370 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 10: one violations, and those tariffs were put on place as 371 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 10: retaliation for unfair trade practices. The Trump administration arrived at 372 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 10: an agreement with China that might have led to lowering them. 373 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 10: China didn't carry out their part. 374 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 15: But are there any national security concerns about that's. 375 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 10: Upholster that's not a national security concern. That's unfair trade practices, 376 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 10: so that's not national security related. We do have concerns 377 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 10: with some of the practices that China has engaged in 378 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 10: with respect to trade and investment, whether it's forced technology transfer, 379 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 10: massive subsidies to industries that really distort patterns of international trade. 380 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 15: Yeah, and that'll be a big topic as well when 381 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 15: President Biden meets with the leaders in Hiroshima, but also 382 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 15: on China. I know that you're looking forward to potentially 383 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 15: going to Beijing, you said at the appropriate time. We 384 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 15: now have your counterpart in place, Holy Pong. He's been 385 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,199 Speaker 15: there for several weeks, so are there any plans in 386 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:15,719 Speaker 15: the works. 387 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 10: I expect to travel there. I can't tell you what 388 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 10: the date is. We have a number of senior American 389 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 10: officials that are likely to go. We need to sequence 390 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,959 Speaker 10: them appropriately. 391 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,479 Speaker 7: And will you'll be there. 392 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 10: I don't know who will be the first, but we're 393 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 10: working with the Chinese and discussing among ourselves with the. 394 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 15: Appropriate call yet though with Hulifong or you're just going 395 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 15: to wait to seem in person. 396 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 10: I haven't had contact yet with my new counterpart. 397 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 15: And if I could ask one final question, Madame Secretary, 398 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 15: I know you're staying on for the remainder of the 399 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 15: Biden administration, but President Biden also announced he's running for 400 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 15: twenty twenty four. Do you consider another four years at Treasury? 401 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 10: Well, look, I was really thrilled to be asked to serve. 402 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 10: I've really enjoyed the position I have. I have a 403 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 10: lot of work to do, and that's a topic I 404 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 10: have not yet given any thought to. But I would 405 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 10: like to stay until the end of his first term 406 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 10: and continue on the important agenda of work that we 407 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 10: have at Treasury. 408 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 2: And that was the Secretary of the US Department of Treasury, 409 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 2: Janet Yellen, speaking with Bloomberg's and Marie Hordern from the 410 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: sidelines of the G seven gathering in Japan, and Anne 411 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 2: Marie joins us now with more on this really great 412 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 2: interview with the Treasury secretary. Really cool to hear you, 413 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: Anne Marie. Try to press Janet Yellen on her future 414 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 2: plans as well as her potential meetings with China, but 415 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 2: of course the debt ceiling overrides it all, and it 416 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: still seems like she's trying to keep those other options. 417 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 6: Close to her vest. 418 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 17: Is, even when you press her about the contingency plans 419 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 17: that she was aware of in twenty eleven when she 420 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 17: was at the FED. There was this meeting that was 421 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 17: made public years later about what the FED new Treasury 422 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 17: was willing to do. She does not want to speak 423 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 17: about contingencies because she doesn't want some global marketplace. She 424 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 17: doesn't want politicians in Washington to think that it would 425 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 17: be okay if they defaulted. The US government would have 426 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 17: to make some very hard decisions on whether or not 427 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 17: they pay the principles the coupons on bonds maturing, or 428 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 17: if they were to pay bills like Social Security money 429 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 17: that goes out to veterans. So politically, you'll be very 430 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 17: fraught for them to have to make these decisions. But 431 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 17: what we do know is that the assumption was in 432 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 17: twenty eleven when we last had a massive debt sealing fight, 433 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 17: that they were going to prioritize the payments on the debt. 434 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 17: But this is something that she did say their path forward, 435 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 17: but they don't even want to discuss them out loud. 436 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, we got confirmation from you as well that the 437 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: Secretary is going to be meeting with bank executives next week. 438 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 6: What can we expect to come out of those discussions. 439 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 17: Well, I think one thing is she wants to make 440 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 17: sure that anyone in the executive world, whether it's business 441 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 17: or banks, is going to put pressure on politicians. She's 442 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 17: probably not going to really open up what she plans 443 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 17: on discussing with them, but what we do know is 444 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 17: that bank executives are concerned. Jamie Diamond told Francine Lacroix 445 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 17: yesterday that they've set up a war room at JP 446 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 17: Morgan and right now it's maybe frequent in once a week. 447 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 17: That will start to go down to once a day 448 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 17: and then potentially three times a day. So for banks 449 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 17: that hold you know, billions of dollars in treasuries, the 450 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 17: bedrock of the global financial system, they're looking at contingency 451 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 17: planning and that is something I imagine they're going to 452 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 17: press Madam's secretary on. 453 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,199 Speaker 16: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 454 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 16: story's making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 455 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 456 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 457 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 458 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 16: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 459 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 16: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 460 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 16: in New York Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington 461 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 16: Bloomberg one oh sixty one in Boston and Bloomberg ninety 462 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 16: sixty in San Francisco. 463 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 464 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
