In the United States, the financial troubles that have been making headlines can be traced back to the failure of Silicon Valley Bank. This institution was shut down by regulators on March 10th, as panicked depositors withdrew tens of billions of dollars from the bank.

The event set off a chain reaction in the banking industry, as other financial institutions that had been doing business with Silicon Valley Bank suddenly found themselves in a precarious situation. The fallout from this collapse has been significant, and its impact is still being felt.

The current crisis will cause repercussions for the next years, Jamie Dimon claims

In his annual letter, Jamie Dimon stated, as CNBC quotes:

The current crisis is not yet over, and even when it is behind us, there will be repercussions from it for years to come.

But importantly, recent events are nothing like what occurred during the 2008 global financial crisis.

Dimon also explained, as the same source quotes:

Any crisis that damages Americans’ trust in their banks damages all banks – a fact that was known even before this crisis. While it is true that this bank crisis ‘benefited’ larger banks due to the inflow of deposits they received from smaller institutions, the notion that this meltdown was good for them in any way is absurd.

Jamie Dimon is an American businessman and banker who has long served as the CEO of JPMorgan Chase, one of the largest and most influential banks in the world. Dimon has been with JPMorgan Chase since 2004 and has been credited with leading the bank through the financial crisis of 2008, as well as overseeing its growth and expansion in subsequent years. He is widely respected in the banking industry and has been recognized for his leadership and business acumen.
