SCANDAL-PLAGUED Credit Suisse announced today the sale of its stake in Spanish fund-distribution platform Allfunds as the Swiss bank raises cash ahead of a strategic overhaul.

The bank raised €334 million (RM1.54 billion) with the sale of its 8.6% stake in the fintech firm.

Credit Suisse acquired the minority stake in 2020 after selling its business-to-business investment fund platform, InvestLab, to Allfunds.

The sale comes as Credit Suisse chief executive Ulrich Koerner, a restructuring specialist who took over in August, is due to present a widely-anticipated strategic review of the bank on Thursday.

Switzerland’s second-biggest bank, which has been battered by repeated scandals, rumours of financial woes and plunging share prices, has not divulged its intentions.

The bank was rocked last year by the collapse of the British financial firm Greensill, in which some US$10 billion (RM47.38 billion) had been committed through four funds, and then by the implosion of the US fund Archegos, which cost it more than US$5 billion. – AFP, October 21, 2022.

  • I tried getting a car loan sometime last year but my credit score of about 521 ruined the process. Since I was in desperate need of a car due to the nature of my new job, I resorted to making online research on how I could restore my credit to a minimum of 650 to enable me to qualify, after a few months of searching, I bumped into a blog and found positive reviews about HACK VANISH CREDIT SPECIALIST, So I reached out to them to explain my credit situation, they requested my info and necessary details and were able to get every derogatory item on my report erased and increased my FICO score to 788 within 6 days, I was amazed. They are fast and reliable. Anyone looking for a credit solution below is their contact details:

  • Have you noticed that most credit repair agencies give promises they never intend to keep? However, in the quest to fix my credit, I came across a lot of good comments about HACK MAVENS CREDIT SPECIALIST on WALLETHUB and I decided to give it a trial. I never believed he would have my derogatory mark removed and increase my score from 437 to 798 across the three major bureaus within few days. He also helped me apply for a mortgage loan with a low interest rate. I strongly recommend you hire him.
