Well, of course banks can become insolvent (i.e if enough people default on their loans), which is why many governments now insure people’s deposits (up to a certain limit).

But Lehman Brothers wasn’t a commercial (retail) bank, which is what I was describing. They were an investment bank, which generally don’t take deposits or directly offer loans.
