U.S. regulators willing to share losses for sale of SVB, Signature Bank – FT

(Reuters) – U.S. regulators are willing to consider the prospect of the government backstopping losses at Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank if it helps push through a sale, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing people briefed on the matter.

（路透社）——英国《金融时报》周五援引知情人士的话说，美国监管机构愿意考虑政府支持硅谷银行和 signature 银行亏损的前景，如果这有助于推动出售。

Sources told Reuters on Wednesday that regulators at the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corp (FDIC) have asked banks interested in acquiring failed lenders SVB and Signature Bank to submit bids by March 17.

消息人士周三告诉路透社，美国联邦存款保险公司 (fdic) 的监管机构已要求有兴趣收购破产银行 svb 和 signature bank 的银行在 3 月 17 日之前提交投标。

However, the FDIC has not given bidders any indication of the size of losses it would be willing to backstop or any sense of how the arrangement would be structured, the people told the Financial Times.

然而，知情人士告诉英国《金融时报》，fdic 没有向竞标者提供任何它愿意支持的损失规模的迹象，也没有向竞标者提供任何有关安排结构的信息。

The FDIC did not comment on the Financial Times report.

fdic 没有对金融时报的报道发表评论。

A weekend action launched by the FDIC to sell SVB failed on Sunday after major banks balked at carrying out such a risky deal in a short amount of time.

fdic 发起的出售 svb 的周末行动在周日失败，因为主要银行不愿在短时间内进行此类风险交易。

The lack of interest was in part because the agency was unwilling to discuss the possibility of shouldering any losses on the lenders assets, one of the people told the Financial Times.

其中一位知情人士告诉英国《金融时报》，缺乏兴趣的部分原因是该机构不愿讨论承担贷方资产损失的可能性。

A sale of either SVB or Signature could trigger immediate losses because the new buyer would have to mark down the price of some assets to reflect their current market value, the report said.

报告称，出售 svb 或 signature 可能会立即造成损失，因为新买家将不得不降低某些资产的价格以反映其当前的市场价值。

The Financial Times said Blackstone Group and Apollo Global Management have expressed interest in buying parts of SVBs loan book.

英国《金融时报》称，黑石集团和阿波罗全球管理公司已表示有兴趣购买 svb 的部分贷款账簿。

However, the FDIC is only willing to take bids from banks for the whole SVB commercial bank, including loans and deposits, the report added, citing people involved in the process.

然而，该报告援引参与该过程的人士的话说，fdic 只愿意接受银行对整个 svb 商业银行的投标，包括贷款和存款。

SVB Financial Group, the parent company of Silicon Valley Bank, earlier on Friday filed for a court-supervised reorganization under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

硅谷银行的母公司 svb financial group 周五早些时候根据美国破产法第 11 章破产保护申请了法院监督下的重组。
