An appeal trial regarding money laundering linked to the Bulgarian mafia commenced at the Federal Criminal Court in Bellinzona, with UBS now facing charges after the conviction of Credit Suisse. The court previously ordered Credit Suisse to pay a fine of 2 million francs and 19 million in compensation for aiding Evelin Banev's criminal network. UBS has sought to suspend the appeal process, arguing that the demise of Credit Suisse should absolve it of responsibility, a claim rejected by the Court of Appeals.

Inflation in the eurozone dropped from 2.2% to 1.8% in September, primarily due to a significant 6% decrease in energy prices compared to last year. The core inflation rate is expected to decline slightly to 2.7%. However, service prices remain a concern, rising 4% year-on-year, indicating potential challenges ahead as energy price effects diminish in November. The European Central Bank is likely to cut interest rates at its October meeting in response to the falling inflation and a deteriorating economic outlook.
