The FDIC, which is responsible for managing bank receiverships and insuring deposits, is also considering splitting up the collapsed the lender and then selling the subsequent businesses separately.

The people told Reuters that the FDIC is currently mulling an auction of SVB’s wealth-focused private bank, scheduling the due date for bids as Wednesday. Likewise, the insurance corporation is also inviting potential buyers for SVB’s depository bank— responsible for the lender’s consumer deposits, to place separate bids by Friday.
