存款锐减40%！美国又有银行要倒闭？（讲解版）|E0427

▍原文

First Republic Bank customers pulled more than $100bn from their accounts in the first three months of the year amid concerns about the health of the global banking system.

The US bank says its deposits fell by over 40% since the end of December.

It comes after Swiss banking giant Credit Suisse yesterday revealed the scale of the bank run that triggered its state-backed rescue last month.
