We find that news about SVB’s collapse increases households’ propensity to withdraw bank deposits as people become more worried that their bank may fail and expect larger losses on deposits in case of bank failure. Communication by the Federal Reserve in support of the banking sector and information about FDIC deposit insurance can contain the risk of bank runs, while communication from politicians influences only their electoral base.

Undoubtedly, as already reported, other government agencies, including the SEC and DOJ, will probe whether the run on the bank was a product of market manipulation and whether bad actors may have illegally exploited the crisis to make a profit.
