Second-biggest Swiss bank allegedly concealed defects in policies for clients to take on excessive leverage. FMTNews CreditSuisse

MANHATTAN: A pension fund filed a lawsuit against Credit Suisse Group AG on Friday in a US court, accusing the Swiss bank of misleading investors and mismanaging risk exposure to high-risk clients, including Greensill Capital and Archegos Capital Management.

“Specifically, defendants concealed material defects in the company’s risk policies and procedures and compliance oversight functions and efforts to allow high-risk clients to take on excessive leverage, including Greensill Capital and Archegos Capital Management, exposing the company to billions of dollars in losses,” the lawsuit said.

Reuters reported last month that Credit Suisse was considering compensating investors hit by the collapse of funds linked to Greensill. Huge losses at Archegos last month prompted Credit Suisse to replace its heads of investment banking and of compliance and risk after it said it would book a US$4.7 billion first-quarter charge from exposure to the stricken firm.
