Credit Suisse will borrow CHF 50 billion from the SNB and make a tender offer to buy back up to CHF 3 billion in Dollar and Euro-denominated debt. European Central Bank officials have a crucial decision to make today as they consider whether the market turmoil surrounding Credit Suisse is severe enough to derail a long-anticipated interest-rate hike.
