Warren Buffett said there would have been “catastrophic” consequences if US regulators had not insured the deposits at Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, as their failures risked sparking a run at lenders across the country.“Even though the FDIC [Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation] limit is $250,000 . . . that is not the way the US is going to behave anymore than they’re going to let the debt ceiling let the world go into turmoil,” the Berkshire Hathaway chief executive told tens of thousands of shareholders gathered in downtown Omaha for the company’s annual meeting on Saturday.
沃伦•巴菲特(Warren Buffett)表示,若不是美国监管机构全额担保硅谷银行(Silicon Valley Bank)和签名银行(Signature Bank)——这两家银行的倒闭可能在全美各地引发银行挤兑——的存款,本来会有“灾难性”后果。
