A giant stylized crushing machine, inspired by a mechanical press, prominently displays the yellow stars of the European Union on its front, symbolizing the regulator. Bundles of banknotes, bonds, and financial documents marked with the number 17.5 are sucked into the machine. On the other side, they emerge as black confetti, symbolizing the destruction of catastrophe bond funds within UCITS portfolios.

If the European Commission follows this recommendation, a wave of forced sales could shake an already strained market.
