Honestly, anyone who signs an exclusivity clause with a bank deserves whatever they get.

He proved they can’t mange risk. Why would anyone let them miss manage their funds again?

Kind of depends WTF happened.
From what has been said, JP Morgan and other banks poached their depositors, meaning they had to cough up billions for them and fricking up their cash flow.
Depositors leaving is normal. Competitors actively soliciting them doesn’t appear to be.

Large loans typically have a clause stating that the borrower must maintain a primary deposit account with the lender. Sometimes it’s exclusive and sometimes it’s a bit more vague.

SVB’s suits would have to wind their way through the court system, which will take years, and discovery could highlight a bunch of issues that legitimized depositors bailing because of an impending collapse.
SVB may have the law by their side but this country isn’t necessarily governed by laws anymore.

You realize that this is a new CEO, right?

The CEO implored venture clients to bring funds back to the bank, noting that if they did so, the firm would try to forego pursuing any violations of exclusivity clauses.

If that is a jury trial, what are the chances that SVB gets a verdict and their judgment is over $1?
People aren’t going to side with a failed back against investors who managed to leave unless there is proof they did so in order to force a failure, IMHO.

Most of these contracts have jury trial waivers. These are purely contractual and are based on loans taken out by these companies. The companies can pay the loans back and take their money elsewhere, or they can try to negotiate an amendment to the contract.

Put another way, a start-up on the other side of a US government legal action won't be a start-up for long. It will be a shut-down

What a perfect snapshot of society, too many people riding the cart and not enough people pulling the cart
The days of the competent carrying the weight for the grossly incompetent are over
