ZURICH, March 30 (Reuters) - The Swiss National Bank's
Vice Chairman defended the central bank's handling of Credit
Suisse's liquidity crisis on Thursday in an interview with Swiss
newspaper NZZ.
"We were not too late with the measures," Martin Schlegel
said because the bank's takeover by Credit Suisse was still
possible.
He said the authorities had been active regarding Credit
Suisse for a long time. "Even my first meeting as SNB
Vice-President in August 2022 revolved around Credit Suisse,"
Schlegel said.
