"It was the second biggest bank failure in U.S. history after the collapse of Washington Mutual in 2008." The bank served mostly technology workers and venture capital-backed companies, including some of the industry’s best-known brands.Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who spent last week traveling to Ukraine to pledge another $10 billion from US taxpayers to the Zelensky regime, said the US banking system "remains resilient" despite SVB's collapse.
