Large U.S. banks injected the funds into the San Francisco-based bank on Thursday, swooping in to rescue the lender caught up in a widening crisis triggered by the collapse of two other mid-size U.S. lenders over the past week.
DEVELOPMENTS
* First Republic Bank received $30 billion in deposits from several big banks, the banks said in a statement on Thursday, as part of a rescue package for the lender. Involved in the rescue are JPMorgan Chase & Co (NYSE:JPM), Citigroup Inc (NYSE:C), Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC), Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) & Co, Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS), Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) and others.
