TL;DR Summary

PacWest Bancorp is reportedly exploring strategic options, including a sale or raising capital, after its shares dropped nearly 72% since the start of 2023. The California-based bank has not yet initiated an auction process, and selling all of its businesses as one hasn't been attractive to many entities. PacWest's other options include breaking its businesses up. The bank's total deposits for Q1 2023 marked a nearly 17% decrease from Q4 2022 and an approximately 15% decline from Q1 2022.
