‘Almost one billion francs’: Credit Suisse reveals exposure to Russia

11:34am, Thursday, 10'th Mar 2022 The Local Denmark
Russia has been hit with crippling sanctions and traditionally neutral Switzerland last week aligned itself with EU penalities over the February 24 invasion of Ukraine and ordered the freezing of Russian assets. Switzerland’s second largest bank said its exposure to Russia stood at 848 million Swiss francs ($914 million, 828 million euros) at the end of 2021. But as of March 7 it had “minimal total credit exposure towards specifically sanctioned individuals managed by our wealth management division,” a statement said. Credit Suisse’s top domestic rival UBS announced earlier this week that its exposure to Russia totalled $200 million, with under $10 million of loans outstanding to sanctioned clients.

Credit Suisse said it had registered derivatives and financing exposures in its investment bank, trade finance exposures in its Swiss Universal Bank and Lombard, as well as loans issued by its international wealth management division.
