The FDIC plans to sell all of Signature Bank's 40 branches to Flagstar Bank, as well as some Signature loans and deposits not in its digital banking business
Bloomberg reports: — “Signature Bank's crypto-related deposits will be returned to customers directly … Michael Farrell : I am pleased to announce that Signature Bridge Bank, N.A. was acquired Sunday, March 19, 2023 by New York Community Bancorp, Inc. ("NYCB") … Tweets: @fdicgov : Today, we entered into an agreement with a subsidiary of New York Community Bancorp, Inc., to purchase and assume deposits and assets out of Signature Bridge Bank.

Collins Belton / @collins_belton : NY Community Bancorp taking over Signature and *will not* be servicing any depositors related to its “digital banking business.” FDIC will be directly returning $4B+ of deposits related to “digital banking” to the depositors. Looks like that's settled. https://twitter.com/...

Frances ‘Cassandra’ Coppola / @frances_coppola : NYCB (Flagstar) has taken on virtually all #SignatureBank's deposits but only a third of the assets. It won't touch the rest with a barge pole - including the Signet network. Too toxic for it. @josephpolitano : Recently failed Signature Bank was just bought by Flagstar Bank from the FDIC, which is interesting because Flagstar was actually smaller than Signature at the start of this year. As of December 31st Flagstar had assets of $90B and Signature had assets of $110B! https://twitter.com/... JC Oviedo / @jcoviedo6 : “Flagstar Bank's bid did not include approximately $4 billion of deposits related to the former Signature Bank's digital banking business. The FDIC will provide these deposits directly to customers whose accounts are associated with the digital banking business.” @josephpolitano : The FDIC has found a buyer for Signature Bank—Flagstar Bank will be taking over for most depositors. Flagstar did not assume about $4B in deposits related to Signature's crypto business. Signature had ~17.6B in crypto-related deposits in January, most of which already left. https://twitter.com/... Eddy Elfenbein / @eddyelfenbein : I don't see how Signature Bank was systemically important. Todd Phillips / @tphillips : “The FDIC estimates the cost of the failure of Signature Bank to its Deposit Insurance Fund to be approximately $2.5 billion. The exact cost will be determined when the FDIC terminates the receivership.” That's not great, but not terrible either. https://twitter.com/... @mikeburgersburg : SIGNATURE BANK ACQUIRED BY FLAGSTAR: - $4 billion in digital asset deposits NOT included; will be dispersed directly by FDIC - FDIC anticipates losses on insurance fund of up to $2.5 BILLION Suggests SBNY was NOT solvent at time of shutdown... https://www.fdic.gov/...

It's a bad look for the venture capital industry that they panicked and cause SVB to collapse via a bank run, and now no bank wants to take it over and get the VC/startup customer base. A real own goal. https://www.reuters.com/...
