Billion Dollar Moves podcast host Sarah Chen-Spellings invited Michele Wucker to talk about risk management lessons to be learned from the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank. The episode aired April 13, 2023.
Silicon Valley Bank, considered to be the epicenter of Silicon Valley tech and small businesses, collapsed on March 10th after a run on the deposits doomed the bank’s plans to raise fresh capital. At first, there was major concern that this crash would take the VC and startup ecosystem with it, but the government swooped in and provided a backstop. Catastrophe averted? Not quite. Today’s episode is by no means a full breakdown of what happened. But it has insights drawn from the early days after the crash that can help you to answer: How should you be thinking about risk, and what next?
