The rapid collapse of Silicon Valley Bank before its closure by the FDIC immediately raised the prospect that this could spill-over into a systemic banking crisis. It has brought back memories of how troubles in a small corner of the US mortgage market (sub-prime) in 2006-07 opened up cracks in the financial system that spread by 2008-09 into the Global Financial Crisis. This panel will give an international perspective of the on-going crisis containment measures being taken by US authorities and will give their views on defensive measures appropriate for policy-makers globally.
