I believe you’re underthinking it. The prevailing narrative as these regional banks were collapsing was to get your $ into the largest banks. If anything, the more regional banks that went under, the more depositors would flee to the big boys… of course they didn’t do it for love, they did it because they see FRC as a low-risk, short-term-high-reward investment because it’s being unfairly lumped into the same group as SVB and Signature (who both a had a much different, irredeemable type of exposure)

With every banking crisis comes increased regulation which is bad for business and profits. Even if the big boys got more deposits, they would get kneecapped by the government and any new regulations will last a lifetime.

Right. Because in 2009 after everything collapsed the Banks went bankrupt and definitely had very strict regulations that were ruthlessly enforced up until today…
