About Credit Suisse

The Credit Suisse Group (SWX:CSGN, NYSE: CSR) is a financial services company, headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland. It is the second-largest Swiss bank, behind UBS AG. Credit Suisse was founded in 1856 under the name Schweizerische Kreditanstalt (SKA, Swiss Credit Institution). The bank has recently been reorganized into three divisions, Investment Banking, Private Banking, and Asset Management. In 1940, it opened its first branch outside of Switzerland, in New York City. In 1988, it gained a controlling stake in The First Boston Corporation, hence the name of its investment banking unit Credit Suisse First Boston. In 1993, Credit Suisse Group bought Schweizerische Volksbank (People's Bank of Switzerland). In 1996 the two retail banks were merged and renamed to Credit Suisse. During the dot-com boom in 2000 Credit Suisse acquired the investment bank Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette (DLJ) and its e-commerce software portfolio. DLJ Direct, the software was later sold off to the Bank of Canada.

Two divisions (Credit Suisse, and Credit Suisse First Boston) are integrating under the "One Bank" programme. Credit Suisse has reorganized into three key divisions: investment banking, private banking, and asset management.
