Fallout from the failure of Silicon Valley Bank has left the banking sector in a state of turmoil, with 11 giant banks depositing $30 billion into First Republic Bank to keep it afloat. The bank has become a firewall against further stress to the banking system from SVB’s collapse, but its stock has lost more than 60% in the past week and its credit was downgraded to junk. The situation highlights the need for better risk management and regulations to prevent future failures.
