Ironically, SVB, or whatever its new name will be. Like how the safest airline to fly is the one who just had an accident.

  SVB no longer exists.

      No, it’s not. DINB exists to sell the remaining assets of SVB, it’s not going to take new deposits.

  Will it be as easy to open an account for foreign entrepreneurs as before? I'm not foreign, just heard that's why some people used SVB because the others won't even open an account for them.

    I think there's some evidence that SVB UK might have been even more entrepreneur-friendly (compared to its peers) than its US parent.

  Isn't as true as you think. Some airlines have atrocious safety records, mostly they are in countries with low regulations. Take from that what you will. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroflot_accidents_and_incidents#2000s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroflot_accidents_and_inciden...
