Masterclass : The Global Boom in Corporate Cash: Causes and Implications

This masterclass discusses the causes and the strategic consequences of booming corporate savings. One of the most striking shift that occurred recently in the global economy is indeed that the corporate sector, as a whole, has turned from being net borrower to become a net lender of funds. 
For a company such as Apple, cash and securities represent about 43% of its total assets, far more than its debt. Such trend raises fundamental questions for CEOs: Why are companies piling up so much cash? What assets do they use to save ? And what are the macroeconomic implications of this “corporate savings glut”? 
Specifically, relying on recent research, the masterclass will show that such a shift in corporate behavior can be a new source of financial instability, as exemplified by the failure of Silicon Valley Bank in the US in early 2023.
