Calling using client funds as collateral for risky investments (over and over again) as poor risk management it is a bit of an understatement.

It wasn't technically illegal nor was it fraud since it had an exemption from the Volcker Rule you're referring to.

It's illegal to misrepresent what you are using your clients funds for, as was proved in court.

Edit: wait, I think that was SBF rather than SVB. Why are these acronyms so similar :(

All they needed to do was put "Hookers and blow on yachts" in really, really small print somewhere.
