UBS may delay results after Credit Suisse rescue: report

UBS is reportedly considering delaying its financial results from July 25 to late August due to the complex issues involved in the takeover of Credit Suisse.


 

UBS may reportedly decide to push back its quarterly results as it works on the takeover of Credit Suisse.

The bank is due to report its results on July 25.

Due to the financial and political complexities of taking over Credit Suisse, results may be delayed until the end of August, according to The Financial Times.

Parts of the deal have already been challenged by politicians and lawyers. UBS executives had hoped to complete the deal by the start of June.

Among the complex issues UBS is facing is combining the two banks’ accounting systems, which each follow different standards. 

UBS follows the International Financial Reporting Standards, while Credit Suisse uses the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which are more common among U.S. companies.

UBS’s original merger plan has caused alarm within Switzerland due to fears over branch closures and job cuts. 

FOX Business has reached out to UBS for comment.

Ermotti has insisted that Swiss taxpayers are "exceptionally unlikely" to suffer losses on the takeover.
