  • FINMA Approves Merger Of UBS And Credit Suisse

    Date 19/03/2023

    The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA has approved the takeover of Credit Suisse by UBS. FINMA welcomes the takeover solution and the measures taken by the Swiss Confederation and the Swiss National Bank SNB. The transaction and the measures taken will ensure stability for the bank’s customers and for the financial centre. The SNB is granting the bank further liquidity assistance that is backed by a default guarantee by the Swiss Confederation. This will provide sufficient liquidity to carry out the takeover. On this basis, it will be possible to continue all the business activities of both banks with no restrictions or interruptions.

    The Credit Suisse Group is experiencing a crisis of confidence, which has manifested in considerable outflows of client funds. This was intensified by the upheavals in the US banking market in March 2023. There was a risk of the bank becoming illiquid, even if it remained solvent, and it was necessary for the authorities to take action in order to prevent serious damage to the Swiss and international financial markets.
