All weekend, frantic negotiations have been taking place in Switzerland to deal with the troubled banking giant Credit Suisse. It is one hundred and sixty seven years old and has over a trillion dollars of assets under management, but it seems likely in the next few hours it will cease to exist, with reports of either a takeover, or possibly nationalisation.
Earlier this week, Switzerland’s central bank tried to prop up the bank with a forty-five-billion-pound rescue package but that doesn’t seem to have stopped customers withdrawing money and its share price sliding.We spoke with the Financial Times’ markets editor Katie Martin.
cathynewman Well, Fishy Rishi isn't selling Derivatives this time.
cathynewman Some of your more naive viewers will be wondering why a generously proportioned lady shouldn't be in banking.
cathynewman Problem today is if there were a run on the banks there may not be queues at the few branches remaining, but a surge in online transfers, which the little people will learn of too late? Where the electronic money goes is anybody’s guess?

UBS offers to buy Credit Suisse for up to $1bn\n\t\t\tKeep abreast of significant corporate, financial and political developments around the world.\n\t\t\tStay informed and spot emerging risks and opportunities with independent global reporting, expert\n\t\t\tcommentary and analysis you can trust.\n\t\t UBS against the clock in Credit Suisse takeover talks . $1 billion fraction of Friday’s closing price. Then again down 99% vs. 90% is not material. But SNB bypassing classic governance by not allowing UBS board to vote on merger is a whole new paradigm and sends a message that the authorities are able to change the rules at will. Shotgun marriages tend to end in ….. 😭
