  • Lael Brainard, the Federal Reserve's No. 2 official, is leaving for the White House, leaving a void at the central bank as it enters a new phase of its inflation fight.

  • Many people close to the Fed and the White House believe Brainard will eventually succeed Yellen at Treasury after the NEC.

  • It's unclear who the White House could quickly appoint to fill such a critical role at the Fed.

  • She's so central that it appears she'll leave a void."

Quick Glance: What is causing bank failures? SVB and Signature Bank failures explained
  • Over the next 48 hours, there was a surge in customer withdrawals from the bank, which then attempted to raise emergency capital on the equity markets, which investors rejected.

  • It, too, would crumble.

  • "SVB's collapse was caused by a liquidity crisis when many of its larger depositors wanted to take money out at the same time." Haine explained.

  • "The issue at the heart of this was caused by massive losses on SVB's bond investments in the face of rising US interest rates, and a fire sale of these as its clients – typically technology start-up entrepreneurs and venture capital investors – began pulling money out."
