The End of Credit Suisse!

After a weekend of intense negotiations, Swiss authorities brokered an emergency deal to sell Credit Suisse the troubled 167-year-old investment bank to its Swiss rival, UBS. A $54bil lifeline from the Swiss National Bank last week failed to stem the crisis facing Credit Suisse following Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse: its share price collapsed and the flight of deposits accelerated. The deal has prevented a globally important bank from failing. Under the terms of the deal, Credit Suisse’s additional tier 1 (AT1) bonds were written down to zero while shareholders received $3.25bn. In today's video we discuss whether that is fair and who owned those bonds.Patrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor:  https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor:  https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance:  https://amzn.to/3fn3rvCPatreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceVisit our website: www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoylePatrick Boyle YouTube Channel Support the show
