Cops Called to Silicon Valley Bank Manhattan Branch After Group of Investors Try to Pull Out Cash
NYPD responded to a Silicon Valley Bank branch in Manhattan Friday morning after investors showed up to try to pull money out of their accounts.
Silicon Valley Bank on Friday was shut down by regulators in the biggest bank failure since the 2008 liquidity crisis.
Silicon Valley Bank reportedly holds $173 billion in deposits.
The Fed interest rate is at 4.57% and $117 billion of Silicon Valley Bank securities are yielding only 1.56-1.66% – this is causing a run on the bank.
California regulators shut down the bank and the FDIC took over.
A group of tech investors showed up to the Manhattan branch in New York on Friday morning to pull out their cash.
Journalist Eric Newcomer said he spoke to some of the investors who pulled money out of Silicon Valley Bank.
According to Newcomer, some startups who are contractually obligated to keep their money with SVB, breached their covenants and pulled the money out anyway.
