   Sloppy oversight by Federal Reserve regulators contributed to a rapid   
   failure of Silicon Valley Bank that shook the global banking sector   
   earlier this year, according to the findings of the Fed’s hotly   
   anticipated probe of the lender’s downfall released Friday.   
      
   Fed supervisors “did not fully appreciate the extent of the   
   vulnerabilities as Silicon Valley Bank grew in size and complexity,”   
   according to the report compiled by the Fed’s vice chair for supervision,   
   Michael Barr.   
      
   The supervisory issues were one of “four key takeaways” Barr cited from   
   his review of the crisis. He also called out poor risk management from   
   SVB’s top brass and board of directors, a lack of decisive action from   
   supervisors to address the bank’s vulnerabilities, and shifts in policy   
   that “impeded effective supervision.”   
      
   “SVB’s failure demonstrates that there are weaknesses in regulation and   
   supervision that must be addressed,” the Fed’s report concluded.   
      
   “Regulatory standards for SVB were too low, the supervision of SVB did not   
   work with sufficient force and urgency, and contagion from the firm’s   
   failure posed systemic consequences not contemplated by the Federal   
   Reserve’s tailoring framework,” the report added.   
      
   The feds ordered a probe in the immediate aftermath of SVB’s collapse into   
   federal receivership on March 10. Once the preferred lender to tech   
   startups and venture capital funds, SVB fell apart after disclosing a $1.8   
   billion loss on bond sales as it scrambled to fix a liquidity crunch —   
   prompting worried depositors to pull their money en masse.
