, which had been overleveraged and not liquid enough to meet depositors' demands for their money, there's now a risk of contagion in the financial system. Depositors at other banks may fear for the security of their money, and rush to withdrawal all at once.

This is going to have a knock-on effect on consumer spending, Roberts said, which will trigger a recession sooner than he expected.

They have been doing it for years, hard to get loans so doubt this scenario will pan out because of one bank
