The Downfall of Silicon Valley Bank

from Let's Appreciate · host Kyla Scanlon

All my notes and citations are here - I am reading from several sources during this video  The second-biggest bank failure in U.S. history after a run on deposits doomed the tech-focused lender’s plans to raise fresh capital. The FDIC just took control. The bank was the 16th largest in the U.S., with some $209 billion in assets as of Dec. 31  Silicon Valley Bank has been around since 1983. primarly works with vc backed companies - the banking partner for nearly half of U.S. venture-backed technology and healthcare companies that listed on stock markets in 2022.   So it was four main things  1. The fed raising rates blew out their holdings - but their holdings were sort of risky 2. startups stopped depositing because vc funding dried up  3. new investment also stopped bc vc funding dried up 4. ceo made stuff worse + vcs started screaming  https://kylascan.notion.site/Silicon-Valley-Bank-3dba234141cc4c3889a1e6a13a52bec9  00:00 - Intro 00:21 - Silicon Valley Bank 00:39 - Four Things 03:40 - How did this happen? 06:41 - What now?  Blog: https://kyla.substack.com  Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kylascanlon/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kylascan?
