Monkey Business

edit

Removed "of Monkey Business fame", this refers to the book Monkey Business : Swinging Through the Wall Street Jungle by John Rolfe, Peter Troob, it may be mentioned in a separate article about "DLJ". - Jerryseinfeld 22:47, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Company name

edit

In the German version the name of the company is Credit Suisse AG. Credit Suisse search on Swiss commercial registers agrees with it. Any advice, thx, --YB 16:36, 3 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Then we may replace occurences of Credit Suisse Group by Credit Suisse AG and it would be a good idea to also change the title to Credit Suisse Group because it is an affiliated group. It would be interesting to list the members of the group (Credit Suisse Funds AG, Credit Suisse Group AG, Credit Suisse Trust AG...). --YB 16:38, 4 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Since no one disagree, I will modify the article. Thanks for your collaboration. --YB 22:44, 5 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
I wrote the bulk of the article, but it was so long ago I don't remember the details of corporate structure/naming. However, I think we usually title articles based on how the person/org is commonly known as, or how they prefer to call themselves, as oppose to their technical legal name. So the method of decision-making would be to establish what high-quality secondary sources typically call them and then make any clarifications in article-space (I think). user:Crisco 1492 is a bit of an article-naming expert and may be able to provide more confident guidance. I've never had much interest in article-naming debates. CorporateM (Talk) 00:02, 6 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • That's right, we expect articles to be under the commonly known name, rather than their legal names etc. Now, comparing "Credit Suisse AG" and "Credit Suisse" is difficult because one would necessarily include the other. We'd have to focus on what the RSes use to refer to the company. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:30, 6 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Just doing a quick search in The New York Times, which I think many of us consider to be one of the more reliable of the prolific news publications, all the articles just refer to it as "Credit Suisse", so I think the current article-title is correct. However, if it's not in there already, a Corporate structure-type section should clarify the difference between AG and Group and the divisions you referred to above, even if a primary source is necessary. If German-language sources show a preference for a different name, it may actually be optimal for different language Wikis to use slightly different titles.

Wikipedia:Naming conventions (companies) seems to confirm that the title is correct, but the article should specify the official name of the company. --YB 00:48, 6 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
The following two links are refering to the relevant information for this: Legal structure, Credit Suisse Group announces plan to evolve its legal entity structure --Albinfo (talk) 22:10, 15 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

After the acquisition, Credit Suisse Group AG was merged into UBS Group AG and UBS Group AG now owns Credit Suisse AG. Does it mean Credit Suisse Group AG ceased to exist, and should the name be changed to Credit Suisse AG? Concisepleonasm (talk) 19:08, 14 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

According to the CS page linked in the 2023 thread below ("Credit Suisse Group AG was struck off the commercial register, and all assets and liabilities of Credit Suisse Group AG passed to UBS Group AG") as well as the link you provided, yes, although let's be aware that a simple search-and-replace is insufficient. The word "Group" is used in more than just the lead sentence. — JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 05:57, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Merger with UBS

edit

Fast moving stuff - there may be no Credit Suisse by Monday. https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/silicon-valley-bank-collapse-what-you-need-know-2023-03-15/?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=Newsletter&utm_campaign=Weekend-Briefing&utm_term=031823 I haven't edited - will wait for confirmation, probably later today.

I would imagine that by Monday's close, there may be neither CS nor UBS... RedSully (talk) 19:57, 19 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
A townhall is scheduled this morning 9am for UBS employees, more information may come in. At this point UBS states it's still business as usual https://www.ubs.com/global/en/media/display-page-ndp/en-20230319-tree.html Noxoug1 (talk) 00:06, 20 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
See WP:NODEADLINE.
Also, Credit Suisse just released a statement to their clients: Until the completion of the merger, which is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to be consummated by the end of 2023, Credit Suisse will continue to conduct its business in the usual way, in close collaboration with UBS.

A corrupt Korean money manager takes down a half trillion Swiss institution. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving country of stuck up snobs. Jackspratt8888 (talk) 20:32, 13 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
