The deal could involve capital infusion to bolster the troubled lender after the collapse of SVB Financial last week triggered fears of a contagion, the report said.

A full takeover is also a possibility, though less certain, the report added.

JPMorgan and First republic bank did not immediately respond to Reuters’ requests for comment. Morgan Stanley declined to comment.
