Credit Suisse to Charge Wealthy for Swiss Franc Holdings
(Bloomberg) -- Credit Suisse Group AG plans to impose charges on more wealthy clients as it prepares to spread the pain of negative interest rates.The bank expects to start charging for Swiss franc deposits after imposing a 0.4% fee on euro accounts of more than 1 million euros ($1.1 million), according to a person with knowledge of the matter. Credit Suisse plans to inform private banking clients of the franc deposit charges in the autumn, the person said, asking not to be identified because the matter is private.Swiss rival UBS Group AG has already said it will introduce negative rates for clients holding more than 2 million francs ($2 million).Swiss banks are looking to mitigate the costs of deepening negative rates, which result in them paying to park their excess cash with both the European Central Bank and the Swiss National Bank. The SNB, which kept its rate unchanged at minus 0.75% on Thursday, said it will exempt more of banks’ reserves from charges because of expectations that the global low rate environment will persist.Swiss lenders, many of them focused on wealth management, have to weigh the prospect of continuing to lose money on the cash deposits against imposing fees that could prompt some of their most valuable customers to jump ship. CEO Tidjane Thiam told reporters July 31 that Credit Suisse was considering measures on deposits to mitigate the pressure of negative interest rates.Credit Suisse shares traded 1.6% higher in Zurich, making it the biggest gainer in the benchmark Swiss Market Index.Like the Swiss central bank, the ECB is also taking steps to soften the blow on lenders. It plans to exempt a portion of banks’ cash deposits from charges under a system known as tiering and is offering free long-term loans.UBS Group AG plans to charge its Swiss clients an annual fee of 0.6% on deposits of more than 500,000 euros. The fee previously kicked in at 1 million euros.Nordic LendersSwiss lenders are not the only ones feeling the pinch. Some banks in Scandinavia already have begun charging retail customers to deposit money, after imposing fees on businesses for several years. That includes Danish banks Jyske Bank A/S and Sydbank A/S. Both set the threshold last month at 7.5 million kroner ($1.1 million) as Denmark’s Central bank looked ready to go even lower than the world record -0.75% rate it shares with Switzerland. Sweden also has a negative rate at -0.25.(Adds Credit Suisse shares, Nordic bank charges from sixth paragraph.)\--With assistance from Frances Schwartzkopff.To contact the reporter on this story: Patrick Winters in Zurich at pwinters3@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Dale Crofts at dcrofts@bloomberg.net, Ross LarsenFor more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.com©2019 Bloomberg L.P.

UBS ‘Raid’ of Credit Suisse in U.S. Prompts $9 Million Slap
(Bloomberg) -- A public spat between a pair of Swiss banking giants that erupted almost four years ago is now finally ending with a payment.It began in 2015, when Credit Suisse Group AG accused crosstown rival UBS Group AG of unfairly poaching staff from its U.S. private banking business. UBS Chief Executive Officer Sergio Ermotti personally shot back, insisting at a news conference his firm did nothing wrong.After examining a claim and counterclaim -- plus a revised counterclaim -- a team of arbitrators quietly reached their verdict last week: UBS must pay Credit Suisse $9 million.A copy of the ruling posted online Tuesday doesn’t elaborate on the reasoning behind the award. The companies quickly disagreed on how to interpret it -- with Credit Suisse declaring victory and UBS noting its rival had demanded even more.“This award issued today confirms Credit Suisse’s view that UBS engaged in serious misconduct in connection with its raid of Credit Suisse employees and materials privy to Credit Suisse,” Credit Suisse said in a statement. It praised the trio of arbitrators arranged by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. “The panel took the time to carefully review the considerable evidence.”The fracas began when Credit Suisse retreated from managing wealth for U.S. clients. In October 2015, the bank reached an agreement to give Wells Fargo & Co. an inside track on recruiting its private bankers. But within weeks, about 70 of 300 relationship managers included in the deal left for UBS, a person familiar with the matter said at the time.On Tuesday, UBS stood by its position that it acted within the rules after Credit Suisse’s decision to exit the U.S. private-banking business.“UBS believes that these claims were without merit and that this is a bad decision that is out of line with the applicable law,” the bank said in a statement. “While we don’t believe any award was justified, UBS notes that the claimant received only a fraction of what it sought.”(Updates with 2015 events in sixth paragraph.)To contact the reporter on this story: Sonali Basak in New York at sbasak7@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Michael J.

Out-of-whack Credit Suisse security puzzles volatility traders
A small, unexplained aberration in a highly specialized corner of the vast U.S. equity and derivatives market is causing a buzz among traders already on edge about a potential market pullback. An exchange-traded note issued by Credit Suisse Group AG , commonly known as TVIX, that tracks stock market volatility is trading at a premium of about 3% over what it should be priced based on its underlying securities. While TVIX is not considered a bellwether for the stock market, at a time when investors are jittery about the health of the equities market any unexplained price moves serves to unnerve investors.
