UK’s Metro Bank shares plummeted by 31% following reports of its urgent need to raise funds to stabilize its finances. The bank is in discussions to raise £250 million in equity and £350 million in debt. Since its establishment in 2010 as a challenger to major UK banks, Metro Bank’s shares have dropped nearly 66% since mid-September. This decline was exacerbated when UK regulators denied its request to modify capital requirements calculations for its residential mortgages. The bank’s challenges have been ongoing, with significant losses reported in recent years and fines imposed for understating the risk of certain loans. Source
