Letter: US intervention was Credit Suisse’s dagger to the heart
Whereas Robin Harding (“Scary reality of the Credit Suisse horror story”, Opinion, May 31) makes a valid point about how depositors at well-capitalised banks are protected, the story behind Credit Suisse’s demise is more complicated and, in many ways, not comparable to other large banks. In fact, what the Credit Suisse collapse demonstrates is that any amount of capital might not have been enough to save it. First, Credit Suisse suffered from bad management (and possibly lapses in trustworthiness), from the supervisory board down, for many years.

Letter: Credit Suisse story shows dangers of social media
Robin Harding’s article on Credit Suisse’s demise highlights the importance of social media and communications surveillance, particularly in distressed market conditions (“Scary reality of the Credit Suisse horror story”, Opinion, May 31). While Credit Suisse may not have been as weakly positioned on paper as the US banks that collapsed, the confluence of a relatively newly appointed CEO, without the depth of relationships among investors, and a recent history of poor risk management, made it a prime candidate for rapid deposit flight in the event of market distress. Traditional risk management is fundamental to bank resilience, but firms should be alert to dangers posed by social media accounts of influential investors and message boards that can compound risks during market events.

ReutersCredit Suisse has paid back government-backed liquidity- Swiss finance minister
ZURICH (Reuters) -Credit Suisse has repaid the liquidity backed by the Swiss government, Finance Minister Karin Keller-Sutter said in an interview with Swiss broadcaster SRF aired late on Wednesday. A person familiar with the matter told Reuters the bank had borrowed 70 billion Swiss francs under the 100 billion Swiss franc ($112.50 billion) scheme. Credit Suisse said in its first-quarter earnings report in April that it used funds from the Swiss National Bank, including loans supported by default guarantees, without detailing how much of which credit facilities it had used.

ReutersExclusive-Credit Suisse axes China bank plan to avoid regulatory conflict under UBS-sources
HONG KONG/SHANGHAI (Reuters) -Credit Suisse has scrapped plans to set up a locally incorporated bank in China to sidestep a potential regulatory conflict arising from its merger with UBS, said two sources with direct knowledge of the matter. Embattled Credit Suisse had been preparing for years to set up a wholly owned local bank in China. The reason for the Swiss lender's decision was that UBS, which is acquiring Credit Suisse as part of a government-orchestrated rescue of its smaller rival, already has a locally incorporated bank in China, said the sources.

SVB’s collapse was one thing, Credit Suisse’s quite another
The 1996 slasher movie Scream sets out three rules to survive a horror movie: you can never have sex, you can never drink or do drugs and you can never, under any circumstances, say “I’ll be right back”. Among recent bank failures, Silvergate did the deed, Signature Bank got wasted on its parents’ Tia Maria and Silicon Valley Bank did both before popping outside to check the strange noise in the garden. The failure of Credit Suisse really is a horror story.

(Reuters) -UBS has been a net gainer in customer balances following its rescue of Credit Suisse, Chairman Colm Kelleher said on Wednesday, citing positive feedback from wealthy clients. Bank mergers can sometimes lead to turbulence, with clients withdrawing their cash, although this tended to happen very quickly, Kelleher told a WSJ event in London, while some clients come back. "I think the rot has stopped and we have clients coming back," Kelleher added, saying feedback from Credit Suisse clients about UBS had so far been positive.
