Creating sustainable value
Read more about our integration of Credit Suisse and what it means for you.
As of 12 June 2023, we have formally acquired Credit Suisse, less than three months after discussions about combining the two banks were started by the Swiss Federal Department of Finance, Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) and the Swiss National Bank. The transaction marks an exciting and challenging new chapter in our history, which has seen more than 370 financial institutions combine to form what UBS is today, as well as for Switzerland and the global financial industry.
As we move swiftly to integrate Credit Suisse, we’re focused on creating a smooth and transparent transition for all involved. This web page is your go-to source for all the latest information related to the integration. We’ll be updating this page regularly to help you stay informed about the integration and what it means for you.
We are now one Swiss global firm and, together, we are stronger. As we start to operate the consolidated banking group, our top priority remains the same: to serve our clients with excellence.

Together, better for clients
The integration will be executed with one overarching principle: clients first.
On 31 May 2024, UBS AG and Credit Suisse AG have merged, whereby UBS AG is the surviving entity and Credit Suisse AG has ceased to exist. As a result of the merger, all assets, liabilities and contracts of Credit Suisse AG have transferred to UBS AG. We intend to consolidate the operational processes of the two entities over time. Therefore, there will be a transitional period during which there will be two sets of operational infrastructure. Our commitment to delivering first-class services to clients during this transition period remains unchanged.
Fraud Alert
Please be aware that the integration of Credit Suisse and UBS creates a unique opportunity for fraudsters to contact our clients purporting to be from our organization or selling fake investment schemes from our entities. This could be a means to get information from our clients or to trick clients into sending money to a new account. Please be vigilant if you are contacted by an unknown party. UBS and Credit Suisse entities will never contact you by email or telephone with new bank account details. Before transferring money or sharing personal details, please contact UBS (or relevant bank) by telephone. If you are already a client, please contact your UBS or Credit Suisse advisor or contact UBS.
