Question

Can a parent company give a guarantee to investors of new shares in a bank and back it with their own assets? Or can a sister company invest in a bank? Can a bank lend to a company that already holds AT1 instruments of a bank? If so, is there a deduction? What if that company's investment in the bank is not a significant proportion of its portfolio and the bank's failure would not jeopardise the loan? What if the bank lends to a company that will use the loan to buy the bank's planned issue of AT1 instruments, but the loan is backed by high quality collateral?
