Silicon Valley Bank is the second-biggest bank crash in U.S. history—here's what it means for your money
Publishing timestamp: 2023-03-13 16:45:56
Summary
Silicon Valley Bank's failure and subsequent government intervention has raised concerns about the safety of bank deposits. However, the FDIC is insuring all deposits at SVB and Signature Bank, and President Biden has reassured small business and individual account holders that they will be made whole. Investors in the failed banks will not be protected. The situation serves as a reminder to diversify investments and have adequate emergency savings and a robust financial plan in place. While the current crisis does not look like a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis, cautious lending by banks could lead to a possible recession.
