That discovery came after queries by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which forced the company to delay publication of its annual report. Given Credit Suisse’s struggles, the danger that it could default drove banks and others that do business with Credit Suisse to buy more swaps to cover their increased risk. These include huge trading losses tied to the implosions of the investment firm Archegos and the lender Greensill Capital. The firm “meets the higher capital and liquidity requirements applicable to systemically important banks” and was not directly at risk from the banking turmoil in the United States, the two said.

He later clarified that his bank would not go above the 9.9 percent it already owned because of regulatory issues. al-Khudairy said the state-owned bank would not put more money into Credit Suisse.
