Core Viewpoint - The U.S. economy is facing new challenges as rising government borrowing costs and a potential increase in the deficit threaten to impact fiscal sustainability and economic growth [1][3]. Group 1: Economic Impact - The recent downgrade of the U.S. credit rating by Moody's and the challenges in passing the Republican tax bill have led to a sell-off in U.S. Treasuries, causing yields to rise sharply [1]. - The 30-year Treasury yield reached 5.089%, the highest level since October 2023, while the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 4.595%, marking its peak since February 2023 [1]. - The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicts that the Republican tax plan could increase the deficit to about 7% of GDP, an unprecedented level for a low-unemployment economy [3]. Group 2: Fiscal Policy Concerns - The rising interest rates mean the government will need to allocate more funds to cover interest payments on nearly $29 trillion in debt, potentially leading to higher taxes or reduced government services for citizens [4]. - The high-interest environment not only affects government finances but also increases borrowing costs for consumers and businesses, which could suppress economic activity [4]. Group 3: Political Dynamics - There is skepticism regarding whether the Trump administration will make significant fiscal adjustments, as Republican leaders believe that economic growth from tariffs and deregulation will offset revenue losses from tax cuts [5]. - Analysts suggest that there will be no substantial fiscal consolidation in the foreseeable future, and the U.S. is likely to continue running large deficits [5]. - The Trump administration's previous promises to address the deficit through significant spending cuts have been scaled back, with current Republican sentiment showing less concern for fiscal deficits compared to a decade ago [5].

此外，统一监管时间表也已确定，所有条款将于 2026 年正式生效，以确保行业平稳过渡。 智通财经APP获悉，英国政府宣布，将从明年起对"先买后付"(Buy Now Pay Later，简称BNPL)行业实施 全面监管升级，推动该领域监管标准与其他消费信贷产品接轨。根据财政部最新声明，相关立法草案将 于本周一正式提交议会审议，旨在通过系统性规则填补行业监管空白。 据了解，新规明确要求 BNPL 贷款机构在发放贷款前必须履行两大义务，一方面要进行强制偿债能力 审查，即以 Klarna、Clearpay 为代表的头部平台需通过信用评估、收入核实等手段，确认消费者具备还 款能力，从源头遏制过度借贷风险;另一方面需完善消费者救济机制，借款人遭遇纠纷时可向金融申诉 专员服务(Financial Ombudsman Service)提起投诉，并享有加速退款通道。 此次政策落地并非一蹴而就。英国上届保守党政府自2021年起便对BNPL行业展开持续审查，焦点集中 于Klarna、Clearpay、PayPal(PYPL.US)及Zilch Technology等头部平台。这些企业通过与ASOS、Boots等 零售商合作，将"先 ...
