A new Deutsche Bank analysis finds AI borrowing costs mostly manageable, but some issuers are starting to show strain Deutsche Bank has charted yield against duration across the US corporate bond market. The picture it found in AI credit is not entirely comfortable. A thematic research note dated October 15, 2026 concluded that financing costs tied to AI remain manageable overall. Some corporate borrowers, however, are beginning to show signs of financial distress, flagged by widening spreads and high-risk borrowing. The note plotted yield against duration for both US investment-grade and high-yield bonds.
