BBC World Service - World Business Report, Silicon Valley Bank collapse: what happens next?

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank is shaping the business sector around the world.

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank is shaping the business sector around the world, as President Biden says that the US banking system is safe.

President Biden has said the US banking system remains safe, after the failure of the California-based Silicon Valley Bank.  

In a televised address from the White House, Mr Biden said his administration had acted to ensure that SVB customers would be able to get all their money.

It is the largest failure of a US bank since the financial crisis in 2008.
