President Biden has assured Americans that the banking system is safe and their deposits will be there when they need them, following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, which sparked fears of a full-blown banking crisis.[0]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

On Monday, Biden said he will ask Congress and regulators to strengthen the rules for banks to \u201cmake it less likely this kind of bank failure would happen again, and to protect American jobs and small businesses.\u201d[1]<\/a><\/sup> He added, \u201cNo losses will be borne by the taxpayers. Instead the money will come from the fees that banks pay into the Deposit Insurance Fund.\u201d[2]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Management of the two banks will be fired, Biden said, and investors will not be protected because they knowingly took a risk.[3]<\/a><\/sup> The president also said he is \u201cfirmly committed to holding those responsible for this mess fully accountable and to continuing our efforts to strengthen oversight and regulation of larger banks so that we are not in this position again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen echoed Biden\u2019s comments, ruling out a federal bailout for Silicon Valley Bank’s investors and stressing that \u201cwe\u2019re certainly not looking\u201d to do that again.[2]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

The White House Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young also sought to ease public concerns, saying the US banking system is \u201cmore resilient\u201d now \u201cdue to the reforms put in place.\u201d[4]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Depositors with accounts at Silicon Valley Bank will have access to all of their money beginning Monday and \u201cno losses associated with the resolution of Silicon Valley Bank will be borne by the taxpayer,\u201d according to the Biden administration.[5]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

The United Kingdom subsidiary of Silicon Valley Bank, who had gone bankrupt, has been acquired by HSBC, thus ensuring the financial security of the countless tech companies in Britain that keep their funds in the bank.[6]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Joe Biden demanded a thorough investigation of the reasons behind the closure of Silicon Valley Bank and that “those responsible should be held liable.”[7]<\/a><\/sup> He vowed to hold those responsible for the banking failure \u201cfully accountable\u201d and to continue efforts to strengthen oversight and regulation of larger banks.<\/p>\n
