Credit Suisse UBS Merger

According to latest report from Financial Times, the boards of the two banks will be meeting over the weekend. Hence, the deal will be accordingly designed as per the needs of regulation in US, the UK and Switzerland. While UBS has $1.1 trillion of assets, Credit Suisse has total assets of $575 billion.

Earlier, the Swiss central bank provided an emergency credit line of $54 billion to Credit Suisse, as its share price dropped in the wake of the recent bank collapse. However, the credit line failed to have any impact on investor sentiment as the bank’s share price continued to fall. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin price saw a 10 month high of $27,700 on Saturday, ahead of next week’s key Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting.
