First Citizens BancShares Inc is evaluating an offer for Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Bloomberg News reported on Saturday (Mar 18), citing people familiar with the matter.

At least one other suitor is making a serious consideration for the collapsed lender, the report said.

SVB and First Citizens did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comment outside of business hours.

Reuters reported earlier this week that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp had asked banks interested in acquiring Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank to submit bids by Mar 17.
