WASHINGTON: US President Joe Biden has guaranteed the American public and organizations that a goal of the breakdown of the Silicon Valley Bank won't jeopardize citizen's cash, and they can have certainty that their bank stores would be there when they need it.
Biden also said in a statement late on Sunday that he would give remarks on Monday morning about how the United States will keep a strong banking system to protect the economic recovery.
The California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation closed the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), which is the 16th largest bank in the United States. The California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation then appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as the bank's receiver.
Because the bank has sufficient assets that can be liquidated to return money to customers, industry observers anticipate a swift takeover.
Biden stated that the Treasury Secretary and Director of the National Economic Council worked diligently under his direction with the banking regulators to address SVB and Signature Bank's issues.
"I am pleased that they quickly came up with a solution that safeguards our financial system and safeguards American workers and small businesses. Additionally, the solution ensures that taxpayer funds are not at risk. Biden stated, "The American people and American businesses can rest assured that their bank deposits will be available when they need them."
He went on to say, "I am firmly committed to holding those responsible for this mess fully accountable." Additionally, he said, "I am firmly committed to continuing our efforts to strengthen oversight and regulation of larger banks so that we are not in this position again."
The FDIC was able to complete its resolution of Silicon Valley Bank in Santa Clara, California, with complete protection for all depositors, thanks to actions approved by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen hours earlier.
Beginning on March 13, depositors will have access to all of their funds. A joint statement from the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC stated that "no losses associated with the resolution of SVB will be borne by the taxpayer."
"We are also announcing a similar systemic risk exception for Signature Bank, New York, New York, which its state chartering authority closed today. All contributors of this establishment will be restored. It stated that "no losses will be borne by the taxpayer, as with the resolution of SVB."
The interagency federal statement states that shareholders and certain holders of unsecured debt will not be protected.
Additionally, senior management has been removed. According to the document, "a special assessment on banks will be required by law to recover any losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund to support uninsured depositors."
Sunday, the Federal Reserve Board made the announcement that it would provide additional funding to eligible depository institutions in order to ensure that banks are able to satisfy the requirements of all of their depositors.
This step will guarantee that the US banking framework keeps on playing out its fundamental jobs of safeguarding stores and giving admittance to credit to families and organizations in a way that advances solid and practical financial development, the assertion further said.
After an unprecedented and careless run on Silicon Valley Bank, Senator Mark Warner of the Senate Banking Committee stated that there were very real risks of instability spreading to other institutions and undermining our national security and technology innovation ecosystem.
"The Central bank, the FDIC, and the Depository Division have together gone about as Congress planned when we composed Dodd-Forthcoming by acting quickly and mindfully to safeguard investors and ensure that our monetary framework stays stable, while simultaneously clarifying that bank investors and bondholders shouldn't expect any sort of bailout by the citizens. He stated, "Their prompt action will assist businesses across the nation in making payroll and preserving jobs."
Gavin Newsom, governor of California, stated that the Biden administration has taken swift and decisive action to safeguard the American economy and boost public trust in our banking system.
He stated, "Their actions this weekend have calmed nerves and had profoundly positive impacts on California — on our small businesses that can now make payroll, on workers who will receive their paychecks, on affordable housing projects that can continue construction, and on non-profits that can keep their doors open tomorrow." He referred to the state's small businesses as well as the workers who will receive their paychecks.
"Federal leaders did the right thing, ensuring our innovation economy can continue to grow and move forward," Newsom stated. "California is a pillar of the American economy."
Silicon Valley Bank was the default bank for many high-flying startups and was deeply ingrained in the tech startup scene; One of the largest bank failures since the global financial crisis of 2008 is its sudden fall.
The bank collapsed as a result of a run on the bank, which was one of the largest US bank runs in more than a decade. Many of the bank's clients were venture capital firms and companies supported by VCs.
Customers or investors in a state of panic begin withdrawing their funds, triggering a bank run when the bank is unable to meet its obligations as they become due.
