UBS has announced the completion of its acquisition of Credit Suisse, creating a $1.6 trillion Swiss banking powerhouse. In an open letter, UBS board chair Colm Kelleher and CEO Sergio Ermotti said that the combination of both banks’ expertise, scale, and wealth management capabilities will result in an even stronger firm. While acknowledging that challenges lie ahead, the bank has committed to maintaining the high standards that UBS has become known for. Swiss regulators have played a crucial role in facilitating the deal, and have vowed to cover losses of up to $10 billion if UBS incurs the first $5 billion as part of the transaction. Following the acquisition, Credit Suisse’s shares will be delisted from both the SIX Swiss Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange. This deal is seen as a positive development for UBS, which has managed to achieve an extraordinarily advantageous agreement in the face of a challenging environment. However, the integration of both banks’ operating models, economic uncertainty, and potential populist demands all represent potential obstacles.
