SQUAWK BOX, MONDAY 20TH MARCH, 2023

from Squawk Box Europe Express

UBS agrees to buy Credit Suisse for CHF 3.2bn in a historic deal that Swiss authorities say was desperately needed to prevent the collapse of the country’s second largest lender. Additional Tier 1 bondholders will be wiped out and UBS will take on more than $5bn of losses. Some of the largest central banks have announced fresh liquidity measures to stem any further fallout. Asian equities are in the red while futures are mixed both in Europe and the U.S. First Republic Bank has its status cut to ‘junk’ by S&P and warns that a recent $30bn emergency deal may fall short.
