Equity investors may be focused on the bright future promised by AI, but creditors are examining the liabilities behind the build-out, the Financial Times reports. Among the obligations drawing attention are leases on data centres.
Why it mattersThat is a useful reminder that the AI infrastructure boom has a balance-sheet side: leases can matter to lenders assessing the businesses and facilities supporting it. The supplied report excerpt gives no figures or details of particular companies, so the scale of the exposure remains unclear.
