TL;DR Summary
Silicon Valley Bank had an unusually high ratio of uninsured deposits, with 93.9% of its domestic deposits being uninsured. This makes it vulnerable to bank runs, as uninsured deposits are likely to flee to safer options at the first sign of trouble. Insured deposits are much more secure, as they are protected by the FDIC.
