ZURICH (Reuters) – Credit Suisse will bring forward its first-quarter earnings by three days to April 24, it said on Tuesday, a move that could allow UBS to speak more freely at its earnings the following day.
The bank is being taken over by UBS in a government organised deal that will create a lender with more than $5 trillion in invested assets.
Credit Suisse and UBS both declined to comment on the change.
The U.S. Federal Reserve has approved the deal and European Union antitrust regulators granted it a temporary approval this month.
The Bank of England has approved the takeover in the United Kingdom, people familiar with the process have told Reuters.
