SVB, a full-service bank based in Santa Clara, takes deposits, makes loans, and offers treasury management, international banking, online banking, foreign exchange trading, and numerous other services. Customers from all over the globe have been known to use this bank.
The SVB problem began when its parent company, the SVB Financial Group, declared the sale of $21 billion in securities from its portfolio, as well as a $2.25 billion share sale to shore up its finances.
This move was spurred by high deposit outflows at the bank as a result of a downturn in the start-up industry. The bank also recorded a decrease in net interest income.
