On September 27, 2023, Bloomberg published an article reporting that “[t]he US Department of Justice has stepped up its probe into Credit Suisse Group and UBS Group AG over suspected compliance failures that allowed Russian clients to evade sanctions, according to people familiar with the situation.” The article described “a full-scale investigation focusing on Credit Suisse” and reported that “[t]he DOJ has briefed US-based lawyers for UBS about Credit Suisse’s alleged exposure to sanctions violations since UBS acquired its smaller rival in June” as well as “possible compliance failures at UBS[.]” On this news, UBS’s stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on September 27, 2023.
