Will all the private assets that have avoided markdowns since the downturn be forced to get re-valued when a new entity buys SVB?

They’d have to I assume to value their new books.

If yes that’s a lot of valuation haircuts.



Any buyer would do their own diligence and assign their own estimated value to the assets. I believe there will be a healthy competition for SVB despite their current problems. Many other banks have long wished to establish a presence in the tech world, where SVB has for a very long time been a leader.


CNBC has been reporting all morning that their deposits are evaporating too fast for a sale. I’m expecting receivership before Monday.


> I’m expecting receivership before Monday.

It’s done.


Where can one find a list of companies that have primary banking through SVB?


In SVB’s computer.


Mark downs are partially what caused SVB to spiral.
