  • U.S. Assistant Attorney General Lanny A. Breuer Speaks At The UBS Press Conference

    Date 19/12/2012

    Thank you, Attorney General Holder.  

    Today, UBS Japan has agreed to plead guilty in connection with one of the most significant scandals ever to hit the global banking industry.   For years, including at the height of the financial crisis, UBS manipulated its submissions to the British Bankers’ Association for calculation of the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR.   UBS AG, the banking giant and parent company of UBS Japan, has also entered into a non-prosecution agreement with the Justice Department, agreeing together with UBS Japan to pay $500 million to resolve our allegations related to the bank’s manipulation of LIBOR.   Together with approximately $1 billion in regulatory penalties and disgorgement, these criminal penalties bring the total amount of today’s resolution to $1.5 billion.
