I am determined to hold those responsible for this mess to account. No one is above the law and increasing accountability is an important way to deter mismanagement,” Biden said.

The US Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) crashed last week after the bank ran, as customers wanted to withdraw their capital en masse. In the end, it was found that the bank could not get enough cash to meet the demands and the authorities closed it down. The FDIC has designated the federal public service, which provides insurance to customers, as the administrator.

Authorities also intervened in the industrial peer-to-peer bank Signature on Sunday by shutting down the cryptocurrency bank from New York. Customers of both banks recovered all their balances. Usually, customers’ deposits with US banks amounting to $250,000 are guaranteed to be returned.

There were major turbulences in the stock markets due to the problems in the banks.
