And now that rates have exploded higher over the past year, is this interest rate risk limited to only a few banks, or are these risks spread throughout the entire U.S. banking system?\nJack\u2019s\xa0today is uniquely qualified to answer these questions. Mustafa Chowdhury, chief rates strategist at Macro Hive, practically invented the field of interest rate risk management, and two decades ago he was successfully managing interest rate risk on Freddie Mac\u2019s giant portfolio of mortgages worth hundreds of billions of dollars (several times that of Silicon Valley Bank). Chowdhury argues that, contrary to claims otherwise, the U.S. banking system was not sufficiently hedged for 2022's interest rate shock.\nFilmed on March 16, 2023.\n___\nFollow Macro Hive on Twitter https://twitter.com/Macro_Hive\nFollow Jack Farley on Twitter https://twitter.com/JackFarley96\nFollow Forward Guidance on Twitter https://twitter.com/ForwardGuidance\nFollow Blockworks on Twitter https://twitter.com/Blockworks_\n___\nTimestamps:\n(00:00) Intro\n(01:33) Mustafa Chowdhury's Background\n(4:39) "That's The Mortgage Game"\n(11:27) Collapse of Silicon Valley Bank: Interest Rate Risk Lurking At The Scene Of The Crime\n(21:14) How To Properly Hedge Interest Rate Risk Properly\n(27:37) Chowdhury Pioneered Use Of Swaptions In 1990s\n(29:36) Silicon Valley Bank (SVB): Who To Blame?\n(33:20) Accounting Treatment (Available For Sale Vs.
