Evaluate the regulatory response related to SVB$.$ Identify changes in regulatory stringency that may have led to the SVBs failure.

Compare and contrast the regulatory responses observed during the SVB$\text{'}$s failure to the responses observed during the wide$-$spread bank$-$run seen during the global financial crisis $($GFC$)$ of $2007-2008.$

Hint: While the Dodd$-$Frank Act of $2010$ required banks with assets of $$50$ billion or more to undergo risk$-$management oversight. The $2018$ provisions had raised to $$250$ billion the minimum assets that caused a bank to be subject to the rigorous risk$-$management oversight. Thus, consider

how enforcing strict stress$-$testing could avert the failure.
