Raiffeisen Bank SA has been fined RON 99,466 (approximately $21,082) by the National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing (ANSPDCP) for breaching GDPR regulations.

FINMA is intensifying its crackdown on the investor network Moonshot, apartment broker Le Bijou, and a Bernese restaurant, raising concerns about the proportionality of its actions. The authority seeks expanded powers, including the ability to impose fines and conduct more on-site inspections, following its perceived failures during the Credit Suisse collapse. Critics argue that its aggressive interventions, which have halted operations and led to financial ruin for several companies, highlight the need for stricter oversight of FINMA"s own activities.
US sanctions enforcement is intensifying, pressuring Swiss banks like UBS to comply strictly with the Office of Foreign Assets Control (Ofac) regulations. Recent inquiries into former Credit Suisse Russian clients highlight the complexities of legal obligations and banking secrecy, as banks aim to avoid severe penalties while navigating a challenging relationship with US authorities. The situation raises concerns about the protection of potentially suspicious clients and the future of attorney-client privilege in Switzerland.
The Swiss financial sector faces significant uncertainty due to geopolitical conflicts, with Finma highlighting increased risks from sanctions and cyberattacks. Legal and reputational risks for banks have escalated, particularly concerning compliance with sanctions, while the authority emphasizes the need for robust cyber risk management among service providers. Although interest rate shocks are now deemed less likely, the potential for increased credit spreads remains a concern amid the volatile macroeconomic environment.

Tidjane Thiam, former CEO of Credit Suisse, faces allegations of using the bank"s security staff to spy on his partner"s ex-husband, leading to a $15 million lawsuit. This follows previous accusations of misconduct during his tenure, which resulted in serious regulatory violations. Thiam, now a political candidate in Côte d"Ivoire, may find his past actions complicating his future ambitions.
Credit Suisse"s reputation as a bastion of trust eroded over decades due to scandals, including its handling of Holocaust-era assets and involvement in financial crises. Despite attempts to recover, the bank"s persistent mismanagement culminated in its sale to UBS in March 2022, marking a dramatic fall from grace. The collapse serves as a stark reminder that without trust, a bank cannot survive.
The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) has set new strategic goals for 2025-2028, yet its performance from 2021-2024 has been criticized as ineffective, particularly in ensuring the stability of financial institutions and managing risks. The downfall of Credit Suisse highlights significant failures in supervision, stress testing, and risk management, raising concerns about the authority"s ability to support innovation in the financial sector. As it embarks on a new strategy, FINMA must improve its operational excellence and accountability to remain relevant.
