  It's been brokered by the people who make that call (sort of, not courts, but regulators and governments) so I'd imagine it is a done deal.

    Possible that they've come to some sort of arrangement. Sometimes the left hand hand isn't aware of what the right hand is doing (regulators on either side of the Atlantic are unaware of what is going on across the pond.) Given the tech war, it's hard to imagine a more sensitive institution.

          What does that have to do with SVB? Or with SVB UK being swallowed by HSBC?
