'I didn't bring my gun, don't worry': The wildest quotes from angry investors at Credit Suisse's last-ever shareholder meeting
Shareholders at Credit Suisse's last-ever annual meeting vented their frustration, anger, and disappointment in remarks directed to the bank's board."It's a sad day for you, and for us too," Axel Lehmann, Credit Suisse's chairman, told shareholders at the meeting in Zurich."I can understand the bitterness, the anger, and the shock of all those who are disappointed, overwhelmed, and affected by the developments.
After sharing that he did not bring his gun to the final annual meeting, shareholder Guido Roethlisberger said that security checks at the door into the conference"were enough to annoy me," according to a translation of his remarks. "Instead of reminding them of what would have been done to them in the Middle Ages, whether they would have been nailed to the cross, I would like to give them something that everyone needs"
Earlier in his remarks, the shareholder said one share of Credit Suisse was worth over 80 Swiss francs 25 years ago, but today a share is not enough to afford a Swiss pastry.
