European lenders were in the vanguard during the era of internationalization, and around a third of their assets are outside their home markets. They are now under pressure to slim down their balance-sheets quickly, partly to shore up capital and partly because of funding strains. The IMF this week projected that banks in the European Union would undergo a $2.6 trillion deleveraging over the next two years. Much of that will be achieved by running for home. In March the Reserve Bank of Australia revealed that the departure of European lenders, in particular French banks, had left an A$34 billion ($35 billion) funding gap in the syndicated-loan market for local companies. The story is similar in the Middle East. Banks have come under pressure from their governments to priorities the customers that rescued them. A homeward bias in banking will raise costs for some countries, and some classes of client, a lot. Some of the forces pulling banks back home are reasonable ones. But once trillions of dollars are set in motion, getting them to settle back down in an optimal way is next to impossible.
