The US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the government is working with banking regulators to design “appropriate policies” to address the fallout of Silicon Valley Bank and is “concerned about depositors,” but she dismissed the idea of a bailout in a potential setback for the startup ecosystem that is reeling from what is the worst bank failure since the 2008 financial crisis.

“Well let me be clear that during the financial crisis, there were investors and owners of systemic large banks that were bailed out, and we’re certainly not looking. And the reforms that have been put in place means that we’re not going to do that again. But we are concerned about depositors and are focused on trying to meet their needs,” said Yellen in a CBS interview.
