House Republicans will likely need to gain support from Democrats to get the debt limit deal through a critical vote in the House Wednesday evening.

House Financial Services Committee ranking member Maxine Waters, D-Calif., attempted to find bipartisan support from Rep. Andy Barr, R-Ky., for a number of amendments to bills meant to rein in regulators. What she got instead was a commitment to work on some measures in the future.

Former First Republic CEO Michael Roffler, in his first public comments since the failure of the bank, said changes to deposit insurance would be worthwhile for Congress to consider.

The Federal Reserve's survey of financial market participants also found worries about monetary policy tightening and the ongoing impacts of persistent inflation.

First Republic Bank was shuttered by regulators early Monday, and all its deposits and most of its assets were acquired by JPMorgan. San Francisco-based First Republic was undone by low-rate mortgages it made to its wealthy customers as well as by the fallout from last month's banking crisis.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said in a report released Friday that Signature's rapid, unrestrained growth and inadequate risk management practices outpaced supervisors' ratings and responses, even though the issues were known to the agency.

In a highly anticipated report on the failure of Silicon Valley Bank, Federal Reserve Vice Chair for Supervision Michael Barr says the bank's own mismanagement and an acquiescent supervisory structure created the conditions for the bank to fail.

A former employee at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau sent data on 256,000 consumers and dozens of companies to their personal email account.

Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Gary Gensler emphasized the connection between the cryptocurrency market and the recent banking crisis in testimony on Capitol Hill. He seeks more resources to police crypto firms whose business model, he says, is "noncompliance."

The six financial regulators that need to finish Dodd-Frank section 956, the executive compensation rule, would be better served legally by finishing a 2016 proposal rather than restarting the process, a group of progressive financial policy advocates wrote to regulators.

The rules President Joe Biden calls for include minimizing the financial burden that replenishing the Deposit Insurance Fund would impose on community banks.

Federal Reserve Vice Chairman for Supervision Michael Barr said that regulators and bank management failures contributed to the bank collapses, but insisted rescue of uninsured deposits was warranted.

The incentive structures for both banks and large, sophisticated depositors have changed because of federal regulators' decision to guarantee the uninsured deposits of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. says it has extended the deadline for bids on Silicon Valley Bank, will break the bank into two parts for sale and will allow nonbanks to bid on asset portfolios.

Flagstar Bank, a subsidiary of New York Community Bancorp, will buy most of failed Signature Bank, but it's not taking Singature's digital-assets business as part of the deal.

President Biden asked that Congress pass measures that would expand the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.'s ability to claw back compensation from the executives of failed banks, among other measures.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen took the first step of walking back an implicit guarantee by the U.S. government that other banks would see their depositors fully backstopped should the bank fail.

The Arkansas congressman, a leading Republican on the House Financial Services Committee, said while he doesn't believe blanket expanding deposit insurance is warranted, different premium structures for covering deposits would be "worthwhile."

Maxine Waters, the top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, says she's confident some of the issues surrounding the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank will require legislation.

President Joe Biden said that deposits at U.S. banks are safe following swift action from his administration's bank regulators.
