Signature Bank spot deposit balances shrink so far in Q1 on lower crypto related deposits
Signature Bank ( NASDAQ: SBNY ) on Thursday issued a mid-Q1 financial update , with its spot deposit balances lower by ~$826M, driven by continued decline in cryptocurrency client related deposits.

Excluding such balances, deposits increased $682M quarter-to-date. Average deposit balance QTD is $88.79B, compared with $88.59B at December 31, 2022 and $98.6B at Q4-end. Spot loan balances shrank by ~$1.71B so far in Q1 as Signature ( SBNY ) continues to reduce loan balances in its larger business lines. The bank reiterated that it does not trade, custody, or lend against/make loans collateralized by cryptos. Earlier, crypto exchange Kraken reportedly stopped using Signature ( SBNY ) for dollar deposits and withdrawals .
