Duncan Mavin: 我撰写此书是为了解释瑞士信贷这家全球系统重要性银行是如何倒闭的。这其中涉及到我个人因素,因为我之前的作品就与瑞士信贷有千丝万缕的联系。在瑞士信贷倒闭后,我获得了一些关键信息来源的帮助,他们愿意分享信息,这让我能够完成此书。瑞士信贷的倒闭与其独特的瑞士和美国投资银行文化融合有关,这种融合导致了持续的风险承担和文化冲突。瑞士信贷的持续不断的丑闻,破坏了支撑银行业务的信任,这些丑闻从纳粹黄金事件一直延续到最近的事件。瑞士信贷处理丑闻的方式,是将责任推卸给个人或拖延处理,这传递了一个错误的信号,即这种行为是可以接受的。瑞士信贷违反制裁的行为,与其银行保密法有关,该法律吸引了不希望公开其财务信息的客户。瑞士信贷与其他银行相比,其区别在于它经历了所有类型的丑闻,而其他银行只经历了其中一部分。在金融危机中,瑞士信贷表现相对较好,这部分是由于它提前预见了危机并及时撤资。Greensill丑闻和Archegos丑闻是导致瑞士信贷最终倒闭的关键因素。Greensill丑闻对瑞士信贷的影响在于,它损失了客户的资金,而不是股东的资金,这导致客户对银行失去信任。Archegos丑闻暴露了瑞士信贷缺乏风险管理文化,其风险敞口高达其资本基础的一半,而董事会对此却毫不知情。一条澳大利亚记者发布的推文引发了瑞士信贷的银行挤兑,这突显了该银行长期以来丑闻累累的声誉问题。瑞士信贷倒闭的主要原因是其员工长期的糟糕行为,这导致银行声誉受损,最终导致其倒闭,而不是资本比率或流动性覆盖比率等因素。 Carl Miller: 瑞士信贷倒闭后,更容易获得信息来源,因为人们的损失已经造成,他们更愿意分享自己的看法,以塑造叙事。瑞士信贷的持续不断的丑闻,破坏了支撑银行业务的信任,这些丑闻从纳粹黄金事件一直延续到最近的事件。瑞士信贷在金融危机中表现相对较好,这部分是由于它提前预见了危机并及时撤资。Greensill丑闻和Archegos丑闻是导致瑞士信贷最终倒闭的关键因素。Archegos丑闻暴露了瑞士信贷缺乏风险管理文化,其风险敞口高达其资本基础的一半,而董事会对此却毫不知情。
