Companies were encouraged to hold deposits at SVB in order to get a line of credit.... In which case, they are debtors of #SVB as well as creditors. In which case they are going to get closed out as part of the unwind. You cannot have this one both ways unless a government bails the whole lot out or some consortium bails it out.
It is too big for the Private Credit market and the #FRB doesnt want any big bank buying it. So government is the only horse in town.
