Swiss National Bank says it will support credit Suisse if necessary By Cointelegraph

The Swiss National Bank (SNB) and the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority released a joint statement on March 15 on the stability of the Swiss banking system and Credit Suisse. The problems of “certain banks in the USA” do not pose a risk for the Swiss financial system, they wrote.

The statement was reportedly produced at the request of Credit Suisse. The regulators said Credit Suisse meets all capital and liquidity requirements, but “if necessary, the SNB will provide CS [Credit Suisse] with liquidity.” However, Credit Suisse still “meets the capital and liquidity requirements imposed on systemically important banks.” The statement acknowledges that Credit Suisse has been “affected by market reactions in recent days.”
