The biggest banking crisis in a decade and a half
This is the collapse of any major financial institution since the collapse of Washington Mutual America about 15 years ago. Silicon Valley Bank invests in many startups. Silicon Valley Bank was one of the first institutions to invest in Paytm. However, now they have no stake in Paytm. The bank has been hit hard by the aggressive approach taken by the Federal Reserve in policy interest rates and has been facing financial pressure since last year.
Cause of bank failure
Given the financial condition of the bank, the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation decided to close the bank. Silicon Valley Bank is the 16th largest bank in the United States with total assets of over $210 billion and branches in many cities across the country. According to experts, the bank had bought billions of dollars worth of bonds over the years using customer deposits. However, due to a sudden increase in interest rates, the value of these bonds fell. As interest rates increased, the bank’s position deteriorated and eventually the bank failed. Silicon Valley Bank provides funding to technology companies and new ventures (business ideas).
