In this episode, Troy Hammond speaks with Danny Smith on the fall of Silicon Valley bank due to the bank run.

They go deep into what has happened, why it happened, and what could happen in the future.

Danny breaks down the information in an eloquent non-financial talk conversation so that everyone can understand the reasoning behind the 18th largest bank in the US falling down.  

Danny is a startup enthusiast with a passion for blending finance, product, commercial, and operations to drive growth.

He has worked with a range of industries at Deloitte, in-house finance with Icebreaker, and most recently 8 years with Xero, in a range of finance and non-finance roles.   

Today, Danny serves as CFO at Storypark, which is an easy-to-use private online service that helps teachers, parents and families work together to record, share and extend children's learning.
