6:26 pm
a white up market fall out. recently me joins us live out from new york. kristen says little bit more about what led to best take over. ah. yeah. well, us regulators were negotiating over the weekend. they seized control of the bank in the early morning hours and immediately sold it to j. p. morgan chase, after this weekend of negotiations, of course, 1st republic bank had been teetering on the verge of collapse since those other banks that you just mentioned, failed in march, that as a result of rising interest rates, which left all of these banks, their loans and deposits worth much less, and in the case of 1st republic, it was having more and more trouble paying its expenses with this decrease in deposits. it was a bank that catered largely to wealthy investors who were not covered by federal
6:27 pm
insurance. if the bank were to fail, a federal government only protects deposits up to $250000.00. so depositors were taking money out of the bank at a high rate of speed. and as you said, just last month, it was revealed that over half of the banks value over half of the deposits had been withdrawn from the bank. so the government needed quickly to try to contain the fall out and pretend protect the industry from more banks falling. so today, 1st republic customers will be able to go to there are $84.00 bank branches in this country and withdraw their money the bank branches. now are chase bank branches, not 1st republic. they may have moved quickly. christian, but what does it mean for the broader economy? all the more banks are at risk yeah, it's a great question. j. p diamond, the ceo of chase bank here and took the twitter this morning. and he said that this
6:28 pm
latest move by his bank means that the banking price is, is for the most part over in his view, largely over was the words that you used on twitter. but the question of the impact on the broader economy is still remains. the issue of course, again, is these rising interest rates which have forced banks to rein in their lending and making it harder for businesses to borrow money and to cover their expenses, harder for people to buy homes and so on. so the economic impact of all of this may not be fully realised yet, but most experts seemed to agree with j. p. morgan chase a ceo, they're not pointed to any other banks that are at high risk right now. so the hope is that the bank contagion aspect of this crisis is now largely contained and the market seems to be responding that way that j. p. morgan chase is stocks are trading, hire another big banks are trading hire. the regional banks are a bit lower, but not as, as drastic as they had been in the past. okay, christian,
