It announced on Monday an agreement to purchase Silicon Valley Bank’s deposits and loans from the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Earlier this month, the FDIC took over SVB after a bank run resulted in its collapse. \nThe FDIC said on Sunday it will retain about $90 billion of SVB’s $167 billion in total assets, as of March 10. The agency estimates SVB's failure cost its deposit insurance fund (funded by FDIC member banks) about $20 billion. First Citizens agreed to purchase $72 billion of SVB's assets at a discount of $16.5 billion and will assume $56.5 billion of deposits. In a loss-share agreement, First Citizens and the FDIC will divide the losses and potential recoveries on the loans. On Monday, 17 SVB branches began operating as a subsidiary of First Citizens.\n‘Find the smart people’ \nFirst Citizens CFO Craig Nix said during a call on Monday with investors that the bank will \"retain all employees in the acquired businesses.\" Nix said the company would \"embrace the talent of our legacy SVB employees, and embrace their business capability, and then reiterate to their clients that First Citizens has an unwavering focus on holistic client relationships.\" He also said on the call, “We certainly will make sure we retain the talent responsible for driving revenue.”\nThat’s what First Citizens should prioritize in the early stages of the acquisition, says Jeff Schmid, president and CEO of the Southwestern Graduate School of Banking Foundation, headquartered at SMU’s Cox School of Business.\n“We bought a large, failed bank in Phoenix back in 2008,” says Schmid, recalling his earlier career as a bank examiner at FDIC. “The number one thing you want to do is find the smart people in that place. You don’t build a bank without having some smart folks. And also communicate quickly to try and retain the best clients.” \nHe continues, “First Citizens says they're a good relationship bank. And so that means really understanding who was leading the bank on the client side.” The bank has to identify the best parts of a franchise that’s over 30 years old, he says. “So you really want to focus on the best pieces.”\nThomas Smale, CEO of FE International, a mid-market tech-focused M&A company, says keeping customers' needs at the forefront should be a priority in the early stages of the acquisition. After the SVB crisis, Smale says a move that would make sense for First Citizens’ strategy is to have a keen focus on what’s going right and build upon that. \n“First Citizens is not widely known in the tech space, so leveraging what SVB has created in a positive way should be value accretive,” he says. “And given First Citizens have been successfully operating for 125 years, it is implied that they are intrinsically good at crisis risk management.” \nFirst Citizens is a top 20 U.S. financial institution (based on assets), with more than $100 billion in assets, and the largest family-controlled bank in the nation. Over the past decade, First Citizens has acquired more than 25 community banks. Last year, the bank acquired CIT Groups in a $2 billion deal.\n“Given their location, expertise and heritage SVB has a deep history of serving some of the most innovative new companies in the world,” Frank B. Holding, Jr., chairman and CEO of First Citizens, said on the call with investors. \nThe importance of preserving these strong relationships has to remain a top priority. \n\nSheryl Estradasheryl.estrada@fortune.com \nUpcoming event: The next Fortune Emerging CFO virtual event, “Addressing the Talent Gap with Advanced Technologies,” presented in partnership with Workday (a CFO Daily sponsor), will take place from 11 a.m.-12 p.m. EST on April 12.
