Credit Suisse’s Final Days: The Race to Avert a New Banking Crisis
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- The demise of Credit Suisse, one of Europe's most important banks, looked like it might spark a new financial crisis.
After years of scandals involving cocaine smugglers and corporate espionage, the last week of the 166-year-old bank's history was a rush to prevent the worst-case scenario, and resulted in a multi-billion-dollar deal with UBS that no one really wanted.
Bloomberg News and Television was there every step of the way.

As a GSIFI, why did CS not have a living will? Why did the Swiss regulator not press them for a break the glass plan last quarter? The bank was basically dead already. Why did the Swiss regulator upend the rule of law to deny shareholders in CS and UBS a vote on the disposition of their own assets? Why did they invert seniority on the AT1s? Why did they address a problem of TBTF by creating and EVEN BIGGER bank in a small jurisdiction without the firepower to resolve it? C'mon Bloomie, there's a bigger story here.
.All these actions turned the world against Swiss banks.
Accountability ! Jail those mediocre executives that were responsible for this chaos. GRED, GREED, GREED....
Schadenfreude at it's purest. I want to hope that the people at the heart of it will be jailed, but lets face it, they won't.
I use this word often very few know it's meaning
SJs can never go to jail. Not even in your wildest dreams. Keep dreaming if that makes you feel better.
Alredy detb bank is die.
So let the mny country how they play. Stop printed the dollar. So mny project using dollar and not all is finished to build payment and everything. We will see how they manage this all. So just sit America and observe
If you mean fraud I don’t see where, they just collapsed that does not mean fraud
Why would they go to jail? They ran a business poorly and the business failed. What crime has been committed?
Tick, tick, tick, tick, time is running on UBS.
What was the point of bringing up Tidjane Thiam if the spying scandal had nothing to do with the bank failure?
Why do people distrust the media? Because full sentences are cut to five words and context is removed. That is why I can’t take a single article seriously anymore. You don’t deserve neither my trust, nor my time.
banks are ridiculously irresponsible with your money. just gamble with it yourself. youll learn
The term Swiss bank no longer a trusted term.
Talking about market cap after talking about debt going to zero worth and shares going to zero worth... Hmm... The amount paid seems quite generous in that light.
i still don't get why this can't be opened up and made part of the global system... everything else has. like all industries that were set up in the new industrial era are now replicated for success in an open format. why not american and canadian conglomerates that make a consortium, buy it up, learn the trade, and join in the business of specialty finance??? bmw bought land rover to get the X5 4X4 made and many components still resemble each other underneath. i'm not saying the consortium would fail or throw it out after they learn. i'm saying, maybe another bank may buy it later on. the victorian era is dead. we are in a deuxieme elizabethan era and will be for a century...believe me. nothing is in drastic change. it all looks like graded stages to leveling into a new era.
There’s no fending it of we’re in it already
Those five words were taken hugely out of context.
Can smb explain me please how it is possible, that equity holder received 50%, and bond holder nothing? Usually, the bond holder is alway stand before the share holder in bunkrupt proccess. How it is possible? It should decrease the trust from investors to bank bond in the future
@@coastofkonkan
What does it mean?
They were a bad bond investment with a clause that they could be written down to nothing. The name of the bond literately had write down in it. They were called Tier 1 contingent write down capital notes. That's what these bond holders bought. Then they got written down.
@@lonyo5377
Oh, then it is ok, if it all mentioned in prospectus. Thank you very much
No not factual. It's agree to be written down IF the bank is wind up . As this case it was take over . So your comment is not true ?
And the priority of giving back to Bond first NOT shareholders is NOT follow
A bank should return to its roots of just focusing on banking not investments. Leave that for another company. EU should enforce this.
wow was that... really all it took
# We who have condemned socialism - governments support insolvent banks and corporations?
in the end, it is quite likely that the UBs will give up on this hill and that it was only a temporary reason for internal help for reasons as logical as possible, namely that those at the top are beginning to realize that it is even more risky to save an even bigger bank in case of another possible crisis....

@bloomberg: Next time you make one of these, can you check the lighting with a light meter? Alex is looking a wee bit washed out and I'm sure he doesn't look like that in real life. Thanks1

Yeah, but when the deposits are pulled out, you have to take out assets and liabilities.
