Not 100B. Given the usual share of equity (7%) the reported discounts of 3 to 5% put the equity portion under stress. Even large banks can not easily sustain repeated exercises in debt turning sour and staying on book or placed at a loss. In any case banks hate that deals trade at a 5% discount because those transactions, once made public put the valuation of existing books under stress too. No auditor can afford to turn a blind eye. Those losses are no longer temporary. You see that various collateralised debt is a tough sale and unfinished inventory from financial aquisitions adds to the problem.
