UBS to buy Credit Suisse, Swiss National Bank says NHK

Switzerland's largest banking group UBS has agreed to buy trouble-hit Credit Suisse.

The Swiss National Bank disclosed the deal on Sunday.

It says the takeover was made possible with the support of the Swiss federal government, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority, and the central bank.

Credit Suisse's performance has been slumping due largely to a series of scandals and poor risk management.

Its share price tumbled on Wednesday, spreading fears of a crisis of confidence across global financial markets.
