India's Bond Index Moment Falters as Foreign Inflows Dry Up
India's breakthrough into global debt markets is in need of a second act.
Foreign investors have bought a net $20 billion of the nation's index-eligible sovereign debt after JPMorgan Chase & Co. announced India's inclusion to its benchmark emerging market index in 2023. Recent outflows have left total investments on the low end of estimates by analysts.

EBA Seeks More Clarity on Bank Lending to SRT Buyers
00:00 What is your best estimate of the number of banks and the amount of lending to those entities that are providing those SRTs? Yeah, we have limited information and that's why we flagged this as an area of concern to try to have more, more information. But basically we do know that over 50% of the banks are using significant risk transfers and that they are selling some of these products to the markets. And the expectation from our surveys that three quarters of the banks would continue to do that, that if they want to continue doing that. So that's a market that's been growing, is basically over ,000,000,000,000 market with half of that is significant risk transfers, you know, 500 billion. Now, on the investor side, we do know that the banks are lending to the non-bank financial instrument, to the non-bank financial intermediaries, 10% of the assets of their liabilities because of their assets, because it's lending 10%. You know, we do know who they're lending directly. So I can tell you that there's not a lot of direct link in the sense that, you know, a bank is selling a significant risk transfer product and at the same time is financing the buyer. That's not happening, but it could be another bank that's financing the buyer. Okay. And it could be that the links may come back to the banking sector indirectly, you know, and that's the area that we need to identify more. That's what we've asking for, basically more transparency and more reporting information. And an assessment of the financial shock, what would that mean potentially? What is the potential risk of. Well, potentially a vicious circle by which, you know, a bank could sell protection to somebody that's being financed by another bank. So therefore, it's a bank giving protection to another bank. So therefore, it all remains within the bag. Do you have the tools and mechanisms to be able to get that transparency and get those answers? Not yet. Not yet. And that's what we're pushing, by the way. It's a global problem. It's being involved with the context of the Financial Stability Board as well that has asked for transparency in this area. At the European level, we're working the European systemic risk for to get more information.

Autonomous Infrastructure And Trustworthy AI In Platform Engineering
Srikanta Datta Prasad Tumkur is a Senior Staff Engineer at Coupang Global LLC, with over a decade of experience in platform engineering. AI infrastructure is no longer just a support system; it is fast becoming the core of how modern digital businesses operate. As enterprises push harder into model training, inferencing and real-time decision making, their platforms must not only scale but think and act for themselves. This shift from automation to autonomy is now undeniable. According to IDC, more than 75% of new server investments by 2028 will be for AI-optimized systems. These platforms are expected to self-heal, auto-scale and even auto-configure their own networking and compute environments without manual intervention. But autonomy alone is not enough. The bigger question emerging now is: Can we trust these systems? As platform teams begin to hand over operational control to machines, the enterprise must demand something more than speed or scale. It must demand proof. Trust in autonomous infrastructure can't be earned through uptime statistics or clever dashboards. It has to be designed into the platform from day one. This marks a pivotal shift in platform engineering—one that blends policy, provenance, ethics and sustainability directly into the core fabric of infrastructure design. The Trust-Gradient Loop At the heart of this transition is what I call the "trust-gradient loop." Traditional self-healing systems follow a simple loop: sense, decide, act. But that is no longer sufficient in an AI-driven world. The trust-gradient loop introduces two critical checkpoints: explain and verify. Before any action is taken, the system must be able to explain why it is taking that action and verify that it meets policy and compliance standards. This simple but powerful addition allows low-risk incidents to resolve automatically while ensuring that high-risk decisions get routed for human review, with cryptographic evidence and system-level context attached. It's a design principle that bridges autonomy with accountability. This isn't just theory. We're already seeing early implementations across the industry. Microsoft's Network Infrastructure Copilot has shown how artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps) platforms can autonomously resolve issues while keeping human operators in the loop with detailed diagnostics. Meanwhile, OpenAI's Preparedness Framework includes documented assurance processes before large-scale model deployment, and the company embeds C2PA-based "content credentials"—cryptographically signed provenance metadata—in all DALL-E 3 images and plans to do the same for Sora-generated videos. These examples highlight how leading organizations are moving from automation that reacts to infrastructure that justifies itself. Governance Governance, too, is being redefined. Traditional governance models relied on process checklists and committee reviews. But in an autonomous world, governance has to operate at machine speed. Frameworks like NIST's AI Risk Management Framework and Gartner's AI TRiSM model now advocate for embedding governance policies directly into the control plane. These policies run alongside the workload and validate everything, from bias in data to environmental impact, as code, not as slideware. When governance becomes machine-readable, platforms can audit themselves in real time and provide traceable records for every decision made. Sustainability One particularly overlooked area in this conversation is sustainability. With the explosion of AI workloads, energy and carbon emissions are becoming boardroom issues. AWS's Well-Architected Framework now includes a sustainability pillar, encouraging developers to treat carbon budgets like any other system service level objective (SLO). Forward-thinking organizations are embedding these budgets into their continuous integration (CI) / continuous delivery (CD) pipelines, ensuring that every container, model or API deployment is evaluated not just for performance but for environmental cost. In time, failing your carbon SLO may be treated as seriously as failing a latency target. The Role Of The Platform Engineer All of this leads to a fundamental redefinition of platform engineering roles. As systems grow more autonomous, the role of the platform engineer evolves from executor to designer of trust frameworks. McKinsey's "The State of AI in 2023" report found that AI high‑performers already channel more than 20% of their digital‑technology budgets into AI, and its 2024 research on tech‑services talent highlights the rise of new responsible AI lead roles that govern ethics, sustainability and explainability. The talent shift is real and accelerating. Platform teams are no longer just writing Terraform and Kubernetes manifests—they are becoming architects of institutional trust. So what does a modern playbook look like? First, define tiers of autonomy for every service: manual, assisted or autonomous. Second, attach explainability and verification gates to any action that crosses a defined risk threshold. Third, integrate sustainability audits into your build and deploy pipelines, not as a corporate social responsibility (CSR) checkbox but as a system constraint. Finally, make trust a live, measurable metric just like uptime, latency or cost. In a world where AI systems learn, evolve and sometimes hallucinate, trust becomes the true North Star. Enterprises that embed trust into their platforms by design, by policy and by measurable action will find themselves not only resilient but differentiated. Their infrastructure won't just run the business—it will defend its reputation. The future of platform engineering is not just about machines that act. It's about machines that explain, verify and earn our confidence. In that sense, autonomy is the easy part. Trust is the hard part, and the most valuable.
