The collapse of the US hedge fund Archegos Capital will cost Credit Suisse (ISIN CH0012138530 / WKN 876800) dearly. In this context, the major Swiss bank posted a charge of CHF 4.4 billion. For the first quarter, the institute announced a pre-tax loss of around CHF 900 million. Credit Suisse is suspending the share buyback program with a volume of at least one billion francs and is cutting the dividend planned for 2020. Risk boss Lara Warner and investment banking boss Brian Chin would leave the institute.
Friendly European economic data and rising stock markets would have supported the euro.
A countermovement was noticeable on the oil markets after the weak Monday. This was mainly due to the increase in growth forecasts for the global economy by the International Monetary Fund. Gold presented itself without major jumps, but at least traded a little more firmly. (07.04.2021 / ac / a / m)
