Greg Smith: Devon Funds Management Head of Retail on the future of Credit Suisse

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays

Uncertainty in Switzerland as the country's second largest bank hopes to secure its future. UBS —the country's largest— is offering to pay around 1.8-billion-New Zealand-dollars for full or partial control of Credit Suisse. Regulators have been racing to save the 167-year-old bank, hoping to secure a deal before the markets reopen tonight at 6pm NZ time. Devon Funds Management's Greg Smith told Mike Hosking that there are many scenarios that could play out. He says with a full or partial nationalisation of the bank as a backstop on the cards, there's a bit of a balancing act going on to secure a deal.
