Credit Suisse stock climbed

Only after this news, the share price of Credit Suisse registered a rise of 9 percent. The last two weeks have been turbulent in the banking sector at the global level. This crisis started with the sinking of America’s Silicon Valley Bank. Later it reached Europe with the help of Credit Suisse. The history of Credit Suisse Bank is also 167 years old.

UBS to buy Credit Suisse?

It has been said in the report of the Financial Times itself that YBS is planning to buy a stake in Credit Suisse or buy it outright. Credit Suisse has been assured of emergency funding, yet it has failed to garner investors’ confidence.

UBS is planning to buy Credit Suisse. But both the banks do not want to merge with each other. Although the regulators of Switzerland are in this favor, they cannot force the banks to do so because they do not have the power to do so.

Credit Suisse’s growing crisis can be gauged from the fact that major banks like Societe Generale and Deutsche Bank have banned transactions with it or its shares for the time being.
