UBS faces tough new Swiss banking sector rules
07-Jun-2025

The Swiss government on Friday proposed stricter rules for UBS following its takeover of Credit Suisse, which could make it hold $26 billion more in core capital, confirming some of the bank's worst fears about incoming new regulations. The key proposal, which the bank would have six to eight years to prepare for after it became law, is that UBS must fully capitalise its foreign units, confirming what many analysts, lawmakers and executives had been expecting. The government said its capital requirement proposal would allow UBS to reduce its holding of Additional Tier 1 (AT1) bonds by $8 billion.
