Merged. Credit Suisse is now part of UBS Switzerland AG. Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG was deregistered from the commercial register when the Swiss banks merged, and UBS Switzerland AG took on its rights and obligations. Client migration ran through 2025, so an older Credit Suisse account number may have been replaced; confirm the current details with the beneficiary before sending a payment.
Announced by UBS's own press release announcing the merger of the two Swiss banks (2024-07-01) and the GLEIF register record, which retired the entity and names UBS Switzerland AG as its successor. How we check.
