Richard Chandler, the longest-serving employee at Credit Suisse, reflects on his 53 years with the bank, expressing anger at former executives for their negligence and the culture shift towards profit over loyalty. He highlights the detrimental impact of investment banking on the bank's values and calls for accountability as Credit Suisse faces its decline. Chandler's career, marked by scandals and crises, culminated in his retirement as he could no longer witness the bank's downfall.
Credit Suisse faced over 22 billion francs in losses due to inadequate internal controls and compliance failures, leading to high-profile scandals involving money laundering and dubious partnerships. Despite numerous warnings and investigations, the bank's leadership failed to implement necessary reforms, resulting in severe reputational damage and regulatory scrutiny from FINMA. The culture of negligence persisted, with key executives, including Lara Warner, held accountable for their roles in these failures.
Lara J. Warner, the former head of risk at Credit Suisse, has been fined 100,000 Swiss francs for failing to report suspected money laundering linked to the Mozambique scandal. Despite her role in combating such activities, she is accused of disregarding regulations and is appealing the decision. The case marks the first conviction of a top executive from Credit Suisse in this matter.
Between 2010 and 2022, Credit Suisse faced around CHF 15 billion in fines while paying out CHF 39.8 billion in bonuses and incurring losses of CHF 33.7 billion. The bank's management, under Chairman Urs Rohner and CEO Tidjane Thiam, repeatedly apologized for scandals but failed to address systemic issues, leading to a culture of paranoia and a lack of accountability. Despite efforts to stabilize, insiders noted a disconnect between management and the bank's dire situation, culminating in a poor report from the Parliamentary Investigation Committee.

Becker, who will join in June after gardening leave, has a notable background in significant transactions at Credit Suisse. Additionally, Akshay Dhiman and Charles Hop de Chillaz will also join JPMorgan as managing directors, specializing in power and renewables.

The FCA has banned former Credit Suisse executives Pearse and Singh for their roles in a money laundering and bribery scheme involving US$1.3 billion in loans to Mozambique, where they received over US$50 million in kickbacks. Despite pending U.S. sentencing, the regulator deemed them unfit for regulated activity, emphasizing a zero-tolerance stance on corruption in financial markets. In 2021, a global settlement with Credit Suisse resulted in US$475 million in penalties related to the scandal.
