U.S. regulators\u2019 decision to backstop the depositors of SVB Financial Group\u2019s Silicon Valley Bank came together just about as fast as SVB unraveled. Things move with lightning speed in the digital era\u2014even the normally slow-moving regulators act quickly when they need to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the opinion of RBC Capital Markets, LLC\u2019s lead U.S. bank analyst Gerard Cassidy, the joint action of regulators on Sunday regarding SVB and their other decisions to support the banking system \u201creduces any contagion risk from the Silicon Valley Bank failure.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SVB was closed by regulators on Friday, culminating in the biggest financial institution collapse since the global financial crisis in 2008. The bank mainly provided financial services to technology startups, as well as to venture capital and private equity firms. This was a unique business model in the U.S. banking system, especially among banks that trade on the stock exchanges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SVB grew significantly during the COVID-19 crisis when monetary and fiscal liquidity were flowing like water and venture-backed firms raised record levels of capital, causing the bank\u2019s deposits and assets to surge. Silicon Valley Bank ranked 16th in the country by assets at the end of 2022, according to the Federal Reserve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deposit withdrawals began at SVB in 2022 when venture funding started to dry up amid the Fed\u2019s unprecedented rate hike cycle, and withdrawals accelerated fiercely in the last couple of weeks. Because the bank\u2019s balance sheet was carrying significant unrealized losses in its bond portfolio, and its plan to raise funds in the public market failed last Thursday, the subsequent rapid flight of large deposits out of the bank pushed the balance sheet of this 40-year-old bank into a very weak, untenable position. There is no precedent that we know of for such a fast takedown of a publicly traded U.S. bank. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast and firm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

RBC\u2019s Cassidy likens the actions of the U.S. Treasury, Fed, and FDIC to the \u201cwhite hats\u201d of classic western movies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only will the FDIC-insured depositors of SVB be backstopped (those with deposits up to the standard $250,000 level), but the three regulators collectively determined that uninsured depositors with accounts much larger than that will be made whole as well. That latter group represents roughly 90 percent of the bank\u2019s deposit base. Cassidy wrote, \u201cThis is an important element of the plan and should provide confidence to depositors in other institutions<\/strong>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another regional financial institution that came under siege last week, Signature Bank based in New York, was closed on Sunday. The regulators\u2019 decisions to backstop deposits apply to that bank as well. Interestingly, this bank mainly serviced the cryptocurrency industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Had regulators refrained from the controversial decision of backstopping SVB\u2019s large depositors, there was concern deposit flight would persist at other regional banks with great speed, including at some with more traditional business models. This could have created acute, cascading problems for the U.S. and global financial systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regulators also set forth a number of other provisions intended to support the stability of the financial system, including creating a \u201cBank Term Funding Program\u201d that provides qualified U.S. financial institutions with short-term loans at easier terms. The Fed relaxed banks\u2019 ability to access funding through its discount window\u2014something it did during the financial crisis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We think the collective actions will help shore up support for regional bank stocks and the U.S. banking group as a whole. Cassidy wrote, \u201cWe expect further turbulence in the bank equity markets [on Monday], but we also anticipate a stabilization of prices as investors realize that the liquidity squeeze caused by the run on deposits is over due to the actions announced by the Federal Reserve, U.S. Treasury, and FDIC.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

U.S. bank stocks have meaningfully underperformed the S&P 500, especially lately <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

All three indexes moved up and peaked in early 2021. Since then all three moved lower, in bouts of fits and starts. But the S&P 500 has held up better than the two bank indexes, which have traded sharply lower recently. Throughout the two year period, the S&P 500 is down 0.5% while the S&P Industry Group is down 20.9% and the S&P Regional Banks Select Industry Index is down 23.3%. <\/p>

    But who pays?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    While we don\u2019t view this as an outright bailout like during the global financial crisis in 2008\u201309, we think this is indeed a rescue, so to speak. And it will likely have costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    According to the regulators\u2019 joint statement, \u201cNo losses associated with the resolution of Silicon Valley Bank will be borne by the taxpayer \u2026 Any losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund to support uninsured depositors will be recovered by a special assessment on banks, as required by law.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We interpret this to mean the cost of deposit insurance for U.S. banks could rise, and could be spread across the banking system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Well, if not American taxpayers, who would ultimately \u201cpay\u201d for this? At this early stage, we think it\u2019s logical to assume higher deposit insurance costs would be factored into bank share prices and could result in higher fees on bank customers, potentially larger customers. But there actually may be no \u201ccost\u201d if SVB\u2019s underlying assets are sold for a sufficiently high amount. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In the coming days and weeks\u2014and likely longer\u2014we expect there will be a lot of discussion and debate about the regulators\u2019 decision to potentially offload the cost of the SVB crisis on the banking industry as a whole, and thus on their shareholders and customers. From our vantage point, very few major decisions that impact the banking sector\u2014especially those during a crisis\u2014are without controversy and devoid of politicization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The finger-pointing in the SVB case has already begun in the financial press and social media and on Wall Street, but the facts surrounding the firm\u2019s demise\u2014and the classic issue of \u201cwho is to blame\u201d\u2014will likely take some time to sort out. There may be plenty of blame to go around, including for the regulators and policymakers themselves, not to mention SVB\u2019s management and perhaps even some of the firm\u2019s clients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Collateral damage?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Given the still early stage of developments, there are many unanswered questions about the ripple effects of this SVB crisis such as: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • The vulnerability of the U.S. banking system to lightning-speed digital bank runs; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The moral hazard of having the banking sector as a whole pay for extreme circumstances related to the collapse of one important bank; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The effectiveness and appropriateness of U.S. regulators\u2019 banking accounting rules and disclosures; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The impact this episode and any related forthcoming changes to bank regulations would have on venture capital financing and funding of technology startups and those in other innovative industries; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The broader economic consequences of this financial system problem, given this occurred as some leading economic indicators are already pointing toward a recession; and <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The potential impact on the Fed\u2019s rate hike cycle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      While some of these questions will likely take time to sort out, we think the latter one regarding the Fed\u2019s rate hike cycle is already being answered. As the SVB crisis reached its apex late last week, market-based expectations of Fed rate hikes began to recede. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Prior to SVB\u2019s collapse, the Fed was balancing the still-strong labour market against persistent inflation. Now the Fed has to prioritize financial system vulnerabilities as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The Fed likes to state that it is \u201cdata dependent\u201d when it comes to making interest rate decisions. We think the SVB crisis is a big data point that the Fed can\u2019t and won\u2019t ignore. In our view, it argues that the Fed should pause its rate hike cycle sooner rather than later, so as to let the financial system and economy absorb the significant hikes it has already implemented. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
