Janet Yellen, the Treasury secretary, informed Congress that the recent collapses of two US banks, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, does not reflect on the overall strength of the US banking system. Yellen told Congress the US banking system 'remains sound,' claiming that the government's swift response to the failures helped to restore public confidence in the banking system. 'I can reassure the members of the committee that our banking system remains sound, and that Americans can feel confident that their deposits will be there when they need them,' she said
