A parliamentary commission of inquiry has concluded that mismanagement by Credit Suisse's leadership led to the bank's crisis, while authorities successfully averted a global financial disaster through intervention in March 2023. The report, spanning over 500 pages, criticizes the Federal Council for hesitance in implementing crucial liquidity guarantees and highlights the need for improved regulatory frameworks for systemically important banks. Additionally, it points to shortcomings in the oversight by the Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) and criticizes former Finance Minister Ueli Maurer for inadequate communication regarding the crisis.
The parliamentary commission of inquiry into the Credit Suisse collapse, which occurred on March 19, 2023, is set to release its findings. Chaired by Isabelle Chassot, the commission scrutinizes the roles of federal authorities, including the Federal Council and the Swiss National Bank, while former Credit Suisse executives face limited accountability. The report aims to clarify the failures that led to the bank's downfall and assess the effectiveness of the "Too Big to Fail" regulation.
Axel Lehmann, Chairman of Credit Suisse, faces scrutiny over the bank's decline, attributing blame to his predecessors while defending his actions during the crisis. Legal challenges loom, including a lawsuit in the U.S. for allegedly providing false information, as the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry investigates the bank's management and regulatory failures. The fallout raises questions about the effectiveness of the Financial Market Supervisory Authority and the National Bank's responses during the crisis.
Compenswiss has controversially shifted its custodian bank mandate from UBS to the American firm State Street, sparking political backlash and public concern over Swiss national assets being managed by a foreign entity. Critics argue the decision raises questions about compliance with federal procurement laws and the implications for asset management, despite assurances that the change is purely administrative and does not affect the location or management of the funds.
