SVB data

No FUD

Hi there, 

SVB was a pillar of the tech economy. 

It was also a huge advocate for and critical service provider to both investors and startups.

There's still a lot of uncertainty about what is happening and what will happen.

To cut through the FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt), the nerd squad at CB Insights got together this weekend and dug into the data.

Below, we’ve used CB Insights data to see who SVB has relationships with in the venture and fintech communities. 

We’ve got some more on the medium-term fallout from the SVB situation coming soon as well.

And there will be some rants. 

Stay tuned.

SVB’s investment syndicate map

Before the ishtstorm, SVB was one of the most active venture debt lenders.

And it frequently invested alongside technology VCs.

So what exactly did the SVB-Venture ecosystem look like? 

We mined SVB’s investments to visualize its key VC relationships and which VCs invested before, with, and after SVB.

SVB’s fintech impact

Beyond banking and lending, SVB was also a technology partner to many fintech companies.

So its current situation may have significant impacts on the fintech ecosystem given many prominent fintech companies relied on it across many domains within fintech (as you can see below). 

We used CB Insights business relationship data to break down every fintech sector SVB touched and 45 companies affected by its uncertain future in this report.

Customers can also see these 45 fintech partners and customers in this Collection here.

SVB’s life sciences/healthcare investment syndicate map

Beyond tech, SVB was highly active in the healthcare/life sciences industry.

In fact, healthcare and life sciences companies represented 12% of SVB’s deposits and 36% of its off-balance sheet assets.

I love you.
