Blockbuster of a hearing today on the CFPB. Adam Martinez testified about the chaotic days after DOGE descended on the agency and his worries at the time, despite his earlier sworn declaration to the court that the transition was business as usual https://lnkd.in/e4st8TJR

It's the business model, stupid. New research on the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and other banks in the Spring of 2023 finds that those banks' business models, which were focused on services venture capitalists and crypto firms, were bigger factors than their unrealized losses and uninsured deposits. The white paper from Steven Kelly and Jonathan Rose makes the case that the prevailing narrative about the failure of SVB is flawed and understanding the nuances of what happened two years ago is critical to making the right policy adjustments today. Read all about it in my latest for American Banker. https://lnkd.in/eAEhvY86

NEW FROM ME: Before the quashing of diversity, equity and inclusion taking place across large swaths of corporate America, big U.S. banks talked freely and frequently about their DEI initiatives, saying they were pushing for change both inside their companies and in the communities they serve. But the Trump administration's recent onslaught against DEI policies and practices — including an executive order in January that repeatedly refers to DEI as "illegal" — has led several large and regional banks to rethink their public stances, in part to avoid getting caught up in the crosshairs. As American Banker previously reported, all you have to do is take a look at big banks' latest annual reports, in which DEI references by and large have been scrubbed or rewritten. And if, like me, you've been following big banks' support for minority banks (which has largely come in the form of equity capital and deposits) you might wonder: Could big banks eventually pull their support for minority banks? Some in the sector say the administration's posture and the related possibility of being sued over DEI programs are already having a chilling effect. Full story 👇
