wealthy clients lose faith in switzerland as financial center after credit suisse collapse
Wealthy private clients are increasingly turning away from Switzerland as a financial center, following the collapse of Credit Suisse, which has eroded confidence among clients from Europe and the Middle East. While Switzerland remains the largest offshore location with a 21.4% market share, the USA and UK are closing the gap, boasting $2,109 billion and $2,166 billion in foreign assets, respectively. The USA's advantages include high-quality asset management and favorable regulatory conditions.
