So what happens to companies that had money in svb?
It is unclear exactly how larger accounts or credit lines for companies will be impacted by the closure. The FDIC said it will pay uninsured depositors an advanced dividend within the next week, with potential additional dividend payments as the regulator sells SVB’s assets.
Sounds like nothing is a guarantee at this point, I guess some companies could be out quite a bit of money.

Working at a Fintech firm, I wonder if we'll be affecting in the coming weeks as well.

Welp their goes my job lol
the FDIC will try to sell off all the assets to pay back depositors but I don’t think they know how much that will be at this point. Apparently, some depositors will be able to get money on Monday.

I really hope you don’t lose your job.

Silicon Valley Bank has been shut down by regulators. Brace yourselves, everyone.

Stop crying dude, you know nothing about Hyperinflation. Live your luxury life in America and be appreciative.
Oh, don't worry, I shall. But... we were talking about Argentina.

Anyways, carry on. I have a $120 bottle of champagne to get into tonight while I watch the latest episode of Rupaul's Drag Race.

Hopefully not. Unless your company had all everything in SIVB without any other risk mitigation strategies.

I read someone bought $7,500 worth of SIVB puts the other day and the position is now worth $3M. Wish it was me.

I’ll prepare for the worst and pray for the best. However all the FUD about a 2008 repeat and contagion is not 100% true.

In 08 those were all investment banks that were highly levered. SVB is a commercial bank. The contagion may involve other similar regional banks. But not take down the big IB institutions like LEhman, Bear Sterns in 2008.

Just my 2 cents. I guess we’ll wait and see.
