It was a very bad decision to remove the Glass-Steagall Act in the late 1990s, which led to the spectacular failure of huge banks during the financial crisis of 2007-2008. To prevent another disaster, Dodd-Frank and this statute both need to be reestablished right away. What happened with SVB is only the beginning of what will happen if nothing is done to address the current situation.

I believe SVB was making an effort to reorganize their bond portfolio. Yes, they would lose money if they sold their low-yielding bonds. But, they were trying to make up for it by repurchasing bonds on the open market at the higher interest rate.

It is unlikely that the market will experience big gains anytime soon in light of the latest developments involving SVB, therefore it is prudent to set reasonable expectations and get ready for a potentially protracted recovery period.

Whatever you do, *DO* *NOT* give your money to the *Con* *Artists* in the comments section!

The $17bn loss was unrealized because bonds held to maturity are not marked to market. The problem with SVB was on the liability side and a liquidity problem, not an asset side devaluation. Not until SVB had to sell some assets and realize a $1.8bn loss to cover. A similar stress has happened before under Fed Chairman Volker and we survived it. I believe what we are seeing is banks adjusting to a more normal interest rate environment as the Fed finally lifts off the zero bound. Due to its hold to maturity book, SVB was actually solvent until the bank run.

Some things are left out in this video, namely the role that the California banking regulator played as well as how SVB handled such a large increase in deposits over a very short period of time.

With changes in the economy leading to instability in the stock market, some individuals may face a decrease in their investments in an effort to benefit from the current market conditions, I am considering liquidating my $725k portfolio consisting of bonds and stocks.

The root cause of the Silicon Valley Bank catastrophic collapse is the failure to implement the Basel Framework for Banks. After the 2008 financial crisis, all the major western democracies have implemented the recommendation of the Basel Framework for Banks, with the notable exception of the United States. The Basel Framework for Banks was implemented only for the major American banks. The smaller banks and regional banks were exempted (including SVB) because they lobbied hard and Congress bowed, they were excluded from the Basel Framework.

Actually this wouldn't have helped since SVB had an LCR that was already higher than the upper range required under Basel III for SIFI banks. The bigger issue is that long term US bonds qualified (and still qualify) under Basel as highly liquid assets as long as they are marked as held to maturity, when in reality they should have been valued using mark to market. The real issue is that no one in the company or the outside regulators seemed to consider the fundamental issue of insurance rate risk, and SVB purchased no interest rate swaps to hedge their position which is incredibly unusual. The former and new risk management officers, COO, and CEO should be prevented from ever working in the financial sector again.

It turns out that having long periods of Fed manipulated interest rates towards zero percent caused massive systemic risk. Once rates were allowed to move back towards a normal equilibrium we suddenly saw firms that depended on negative real rates struggle to survive. It was the Fed that created this crisis by inflating to unsustainable bubbles so they could "stimulate" the economy. Unfortunately that stimulation only lasted as long as rates remained far below market equilibrium. When rates climbed treasuries tanked .. taking down SVB with them.

LENDER OF LAST RESORT Perhaps the most important part of the bailout, however, was that the money to make it possible was created-directly or indirectly-by the Federal Reserve System. If the bank had been allowed to fail, and the FDIC had been required to cover the losses, the drain would have emptied the entire fund with nothing left to cover the liabilities of thousands of other banks. In other words, this one failure alone, if it were allowed to happen, would have wiped out the entire FDIC! That's one reason the bank had to be kept operating, losses or no losses, and that's why the Fed had to be involved in the bail out. In fact, that was precisely the reason the System was created at Jekyll Island: to manufacture whatever amount of money might be necessary to cover the losses of the cartel. The scam could never work unless the Fed was able to create money out of nothing and pump it into the banks along with "credit" and "liquidity" guarantees. Which means, if the loans go sour, the money is eventually extracted from the American people through the hidden tax called inflation. That's the meaning of the phrase "lender of last resort." FDIC director Irvine Sprague, while discussing the press release which announced the Continental bail-out package, describes the Fed's role this way: The third paragraph ... granted 100 percent insurance to all depositors, including the uninsured, and all general creditors.... The next paragraph ... set forth the conditions under which the Fed, as lender of last resort, would make its loans.... The Fed would lend to Continental to meet "any extraordinary liquidity requirements." That would include another run. All agreed that Continental could not be saved without 100 percent insurance by FDIC and unlimited liquidity support by the Federal Reserve. No plan would work without these two elements.1

The three pillars of Basel III are market discipline, Supervisory review Process, minimum capital requirement.

Very good explanation. You have a new subscriber.

WTH. It went under because rising interest rates sparked an old-school bank run!? They didn't do anything that crazy, they had parked the excess deposits in treasuries! That's nuts!

The Silicon Valley Bank reserves were in long-term low interest treasuries, without any hedging. I do not understand the reason to buy long-term treasuries when the interest rate is near zero ? I do not understand why the management did not do any hedging for interest ? Usually big failures are caused by big management failure !

Ok, look at the opposite. Where could SVB invest the cash deposits they could cash in without a loss to cover a bank deposit run? How can a bank function without getting profit on cash deposits to help cover loan obligations. Invested in low risk Bonds for profit, fed raised interest rates lowering the bond value, bonds dropped in value, run on bank, and bank sales bonds at a loss to cover the bank run. So, how do you level the playing field without limiting bank run withdrawal limits. Large depositors can manipulate bank runs to get their money out early leaving the other depositors holding the bag at the $250,000 insured level. Plus, we know in reality the fed can't cover every bank deposit in the country for $250,000.

Good video. Very informative.

the coverage fails to mention the securities were purchased under the assumption of HTM. that $17B gap would have been made good in time. the issue was, like the dude said, these particular deposits were very flighty. the VCs backing the startups got scared their investments were at risk of complete loss and contacted the various startup CEOs to pull funds ASAP.

@bobwinters5572

Жыл бұрын

It might even be intentional. As in, the VCs intentionally tried to make the bank collapse in order to push the Fed to lower interest rates. There is even an email trail about it. Before the bank run, the VCs exchanged emails and held meetings with each other in which they told each other that the bank was in trouble. In truth, the bank was fine so long as there wasn't a bank run (and even more amusingly, the rise in Treasuries prices after the bank collapse might even have been enough to make the bank solvent again). Only after the VCs had their meetings together did they decide, en masse, to withdraw their deposits. It wasn't a case of one VC thinking the bank is in trouble and deciding he ought to move fast to save his money, it was a case of all them moving at the same time which actually made a bank collapse much more likely and made it more likely, without the Fed bailout that occurred, that the VCs would lose money. There seems to be some collusion going on.

I remember in the 70's when the US debt hit 1 trillion dollars, the largest debt anywhere in history. Bank failures in the USA are inevitable, there's always a bank scandal in the USA. I wouldn't invest in an american bank, no matter how big they get. 2008 credit crash is more evidence of it, I question the honesty in the US market. Canada has its problems however banks are heavily regulated by the government. They remember what happened in 1921, when some banks had their own currency, their not making that mistake again.

It would be simpler to say that the government doesn't know how to handle events like this. The bank did not need to be closed (due to a problem that The Fed caused and has since created a workaround for)... Guaranteeing depositors' money isn't enough to replace the actual value that the bank created in the economy.

SVB forced many of its depositors to put EVERYTHING into their bank. This should be highly illegal. They had signed contracts to provide some sort of service to bank customers and in return the bank customers had to put ALL monies in SVB within 7d of receiving them. This "Tying" IS A DIRECT THREAT TO THE FDIC INSURANCE PROGRAM AND SHOULD BE A FELONY.

Nearly every bank has most of their eggs in this very same basket -- US Treasuries. Treasuries are to banks what a savings account is to regular people. It's where they put their money when they don't know what else to do with it.

Did you actually watch the video? This was standard bank practice, UNTIL Covid hit and everyone was stashing their cash. What do you do with a massive amount of cash if you're a bank? You either loan it out, or you try to make money with it. Treasury's are USUALLY safe. But they got caught in a draw down, (people spending again in 2022) AND a rise in interest rates that is historically unprecedented. Their CEO should have seen this coming 3 months ago. Total negiligence.

@@jasonmachacek895 Diversify into what? Global financial markets mean that nearly all national bonds move in lockstep with each other. When the Fed raises rates, so does every other major central bank and nearly every other minor central bank. In 2021 there were 19$ trillion in US federal securities while the total global market of similarly liquid securities was 32$ trillion. This is a deep and very liquid market, so it makes complete sense that investors seeking to reduce risk buy such securities. Every other type of financial investment carries a lot more risk that national gov't securities. Suppose a bank wanted to move $200 billion from US treasuries to some other country's bonds. To do so, given the scale of the markets and the transaction, they would need to buy up a huge portion of that other country's bonds (at a premium since they need to find a lot of willing sellers) and they still wouldn't escape the interest rate risk because central banks move rates in lockstep.

If the policy to guarantee all deposits had been in place before the Bank run started then there would have been no need for the bank run to start. It was the bank run that killed the bank.

Agreed in part. Looser regulations *and* an outdated FDIC contributed to this collapse. (FDIC should be ~$350k adj f/ inflation.) -Reduce investment risks: lower banking losses -Increase individuals' insurance: lower chance of a 'run' As much as we may not like government regulation, we need it in our financial system to keep greedy banks in check and to maintain economic stability. The argument that regulation 'hinders economic prosperity' holds little weight when a banking collapse risks tanking the entire economy. We learned very little from 2008.

250K deposit insurance is not enough to cover payroll for many medium sized firms or larger. Additional classes of insurance should be provided to and paid for by depositors.

@@deathbyvanity1955 Not so much the wrong place as the wrong duration. If they had shorter term T-Bills and Notes, they could have paid off depositors. You lock up your Depositors money at 5, 10, 20 years and it gets tougher to sell when your depositors want to be paid back. They didn't properly hedge (insure) their investment. When Interest rates are low, and you load up on bonds that have an average maturity of 5 years, and interest rates rise, you lose money. There are a variety of products you could buy to hedge (insure) your bonds from interest rates going up, swaps, caps, collars, etc. They chose not to do that, although most Risk Management professionals would have told them that is the right thing to do. When interest rates rose, they were likely going to lose a lot of deposits in the bank, because tech startups often rely on low interest rates for funding. So they were going to have to payout money, and they weren't liquid enough to pay out money. So they were sitting there with a Bank that was likely to be in weaker shape if interest rates rose, and they did absolutely nothing to insure against that risk. They basically screwed the pooch.

@davidi3127

That's correct. Which is why these assets are marked as "hold to maturity". If they're forced to sell HTM assets they realize capital losses on the bond. However, going forward the Fed has announced rules to allow banks to use the "par value" of their bonds as collateral rather than market value. This means they'll be allowed to borrow cash from the Federal reserve system without realizing those losses. SVB was just the unlucky bank to fail first - I don't forsee banks with similar liquidity problems to fail given the change in collateral rules.

Global financial markets have been significantly impacted by SVB's demise, prompting investors to sell off bank equities hastily and reevaluate their interest rate expectations. I am a $350,000 investor who is at a crossroads and wondering if it is wise to hold onto securities that are losing value. I want guidance on the best approaches to maximizing my returns in this negative market.

So basically there was nothing too wrong... a drop in value as with all other companies during thjs global inflation... it was the people that brought it down. Smh.

Why not reassign the ownership of the government bonds in the bank books to the account holder at face value instead market value. Account holder then can choose whether to hold until maturity (thus no loss at all) or sold in the market (with potential loss or gain). Surely it would reduce the risk and losses by the account holder.

Short answer, Silicon Valley Bank executives and management acted stupid in buying bonds when coupon rates are low, and then sold them when market rates are high, resulting in massive losses. In case you never took an Accounting or Finance course at a university level, you'll learn that bonds and treasuries function differently than a savings account. When you purchase bonds, you're given a face value, coupon rate, yield, and maturity period. Unlike a savings account which uses compound interest, bonds and treasuries use simple interest. Furthermore, if market rates go up or down, your bond or treasury bill yield doesn't change. If the market rate goes up, the present value of that bond or treasury goes down. Conversely, if market rate goes down, present value of a bond or treasury goes up. Failure to recognize how bonds and treasuries work lead to Silicon Valley Bank's downfall.

You don't need to take a "university level" course to understand that...

A high risk tolerance led to SVB's collapse.
