BIS says debt, AI boom and fragilities raise global risks

The BIS warned that rising public debt, financial fragilities, and questions over the sustainability of the AI boom are increasing global risks. It called for disciplined policymaking as macro and financial vulnerabilities build across markets. The message is broadly risk-off and cautionary, but it contains no immediate policy action or numeric shock likely to move markets sharply.
