ZURICH (Reuters) – UBS expects to record a provision of around $0.9 billion, the Swiss bank said on Monday, in connection to Credit Suisse’s funds linked to collapsed supply chain financing firm Greensill Capital.
“The Credit Suisse Supply Chain Finance Funds have made
an offer to redeem fund units,” UBS said.
“Fund investors who choose to accept the offer will be redeemed at 90% of the Net Asset Value determined on 25 February 2021, net of any payments made to the fund investors since
then, through newly established feeder subfunds.”
The offer is not expected to have a material effect on the financial results or CET1 capital of UBS Group AG, the bank said.
“The offer aims to give fund investors certainty, an accelerated exit from their positions and a high level of
financial recovery,” UBS wrote in a statement.
