SVB is dead. The company has failed. There is no competitive advantage because SVB is not in competition anymore, it is dead. The former SVB employees are sticking on for 45 days (at 1.5x pay) to tie up loose ends according to the FDIC. But SVB is dead, the assets are being sold and might as well be public record at this point.
