Fed and Bank of England Review Bank Exposure to Jane Street

  • —Fed and PRA are probing bank exposure to Jane Street and Citadel Securities
  • —Situational Awareness lost roughly 78% in July and sold its public portfolio
  • —Citadel bought the fund's portfolio at about a 10% discount within 24 hours
  • —Regulators are reviewing intraday risk and the effectiveness of bank controls
Why it matters: The probe could tighten prime-brokerage rules and curb leverage available to major trading firms.
