Swisscard said it would continue to issue all other cards it issues under the American Express, Mastercard and Visa licenses and will continue to operate the American Express business in Switzerland.Following its emergency takeover last year, UBS is now divesting parts of the Credit Suisse business. In June it sold a stake in Credit Suisse Securities , and in July it agreed to sell a former insurance-linked investment arm of the bank to its management.
UBS on Monday said it was fully committed to its credit card business, but issuing credit cards in Switzerland through Swisscard did not "align with the existing operational setup and strategic priorities of UBS as legal successor to Credit Suisse." The bank said there was no need for action by cardholders, with clients holding Credit Suisse branded credit cards to be informed about new card issuance in the first half of 2025.
