Abstract

We investigate whether the failure of Silicon Valley Bank catalyzed financial contagion in the G7 countries as well as Brazil, China, India, and South Africa. We compare four groupings: markets, banks, non-financial, and financial firms. Dynamic conditional correlation and Diebold Yilmaz spillover analyses show that contagion was pronounced within global banks but minor in other areas. The contagion was also short-lived, being most prevalent during the week following the failure of the Silicon Valley Bank. It is noteworthy that contagion following the largest US bank failure since 2008 was, beyond the banking sector, quite limited.
