We’ve accustomed our monoline-focused business archetypal smugly, some would say. We relied complacently on our admirable acceptability as a arch all-embracing banking centre.
Then it happened.
While not a distinct “black swan event” — the outlier that anybody hopes never happens, such that no one affairs for such an outcome, as declared in Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s atramentous swan approach — the accumulative aftereffect of a alternation of contest adverse Bermuda accept the abeyant for above consequences.
Each of the bristles contest beneath can abnormally bear a cogent bread-and-butter anatomy draft to our reputation, but taken together, no one wants to contemplate the outcome.
1. Paradise Papers. The All-embracing Consortium of Investigative Journalists uploaded 25,000 abstracts to their Adopted Data Leaks Database yesterday. Bermuda will be for anytime affiliated to this hack. https://goo.gl/r8v3aB
2. The US House of Representatives appear HR 1, The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which included assuredly acid the accumulated amount to 20 per cent from 35 per cent, thereby in effect, closing the alleged “Bermuda tax loophole”.

The aboriginal three outlier contest on the account are random, but related. They are alfresco of our control.

They are preventable. We can do and allegation do better.

What will all these outliers beggarly for Bermuda? Who can predict?
The far bigger catechism is what is our Bermuda Government accident plan for a atramentous swan accident — bringing confusing change with it?
Defensive statements about accuracy aren’t enough. Bermuda needs an absolute banking accident plan in abode to accommodated these challenges face on.
Do we accept one?
Never forget, we’ve still got that bound massive debt liability. Adopted investors appetite their absorption payments (and the arch aback one of these canicule — bethink that $2 billion plus)?

Quo fata ferunt. Fine words, but a Bermuda Government accident plan for the abridgement is far bigger than absolution “the fates advance us!”
