What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Chile's pension fund administrators reported losses of approximately $7.7 billion related to interest-rate positions, according to a report by Bloomberg News. These losses occurred following a downturn in US Treasuries. Executives managing the funds have appealed to regulators to enforce rules on the stockpiling of volatile interest-rate derivatives. The decline in the most conservative fund was attributed by the AFP Association's head of research to rising US interest rates.
