IBOS member SVB Financial Group has announced its Q4 2016 and full-year financial results, with a consolidated net income of $99.5 million, or $1.89 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2016.

Additionally, consolidated net income available to common stakeholders for the year ended 31 December 2016 was $382.7 million, or $7.31 per diluted common share, compared to $343.9 million ($6.62 per diluted common share) for the 2015 period.

Greg Becker, President and CEO at SVB Financial Group, commented:

“The fourth quarter capped a solid year marked by continued strong fundamentals. We saw healthy growth in loans, total client funds and core fee income; as well as sound credit quality, despite the VC market recalibration in the first half of 2016.

Our positive expectations for 2017 have improved in light of recent short-term rate increases and we believe there could be potential upside if rates continue to rise. While there is still uncertainty in the global markets, and very early-stage companies are still feeling the effects of the recalibration, we believe SVB’s position as the bank to the world’s most dynamic companies, entrepreneurs and investors remains a distinct competitive advantage.”
