Grateful to Hearsay's investors @sequoia @SalesforceVC, bankers at @jpmorgan, payroll provider @ADP, and incredible CEO of @HearsaySystems Mike Boese who offered up his own money to line up a solid Plan B over the weekend. Grateful to @FDICgov that we won't need it. #SVBCollapse
You’re better than this Andrew. Bailout would imply shareholders/bondholders didn’t get wiped out. They did. The alternative is no deposit is assumed safe outside a moneycenter bank - disastrous outcome for US economy. If name of bank different not having this conversation
It is a bailout. Not like 2008. But it is a bailout of the venture capital community + their portfolio companies (their investments). That’s the depositor base of SVB. It is the right thing to do in the moment, but there will be ramifications + new regs. VC’s should say thank you
Makeup/demo of the depositors shouldn’t matter at all. Fundamental issue is individuals and corporations should feel safe depositing money into a bank. If they don’t we are back to a barter economy - and then good luck to all of us.

Grateful for the decisiveness of our Federal govt. today to protect SVB depositors and restore trust. Of note as well is the creation of a new Bank Term Funding Program (BFTP) to shore up liquidity for other at-risk banks.
