Under this deal, financial assistance of $ 108 billion will also be given to UBS and Credit Suisse from the Central Bank of Switzerland. Apart from this, the Swiss government will compensate UBS 9 billion Swiss francs for any loss in this deal. The 167-year-old Credit Suisse bank recently faced a financial crisis, after which the central bank of Switzerland gave Credit Suite a loan of $54 billion.
