The Federal Reserve Board will likely recommend strengthening regulatory and supervisory procedures for mid-sized regional banks in the aftermath of the failure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB).
An analysis of the failure of SVB—and the Fed’s inability to prevent it—was the subject of a report released Friday by the agency and its vice chair for supervision, Michael Barr. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) also released its own report Friday analyzing its supervision of New York-based Signature Bank.
SVB collapsed and entered receivership March 10. Signature Bank followed suit March 12.
