That discovery came after queries by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which forced the company to delay publication of its annual report.

Shares in Credit Suisse tumbled 24 percent on Wednesday on the SIX Swiss Exchange, hitting a record low, and the price of its bonds dropped sharply as well. It did not help that, on Tuesday, the Swiss bank said it had identified “material weaknesses” related to its financial reporting. Unlike Silicon Valley Bank, Credit Suisse is considered a global systemically important financial institution, with $569 billion in assets as of year’s end and vastly stricter capital requirements.

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.
