Description
(AWP Alliance News) - UBS's September 30, 2026 Pillar 3 report outlined a potential USD 33 billion in incremental common equity tier 1 capital requirements since its acquisition of Credit Suisse, subject to Swiss parliamentary decisions. A proposal backed by the upper house would require a 90% capital deduction for foreign participations, adding approximately USD 16 billion to UBS AG's CET1 requirements.
That would be in addition to around USD 2 billion from ordinance-level measures and around USD 15 billion under existing regulations. The total annual capital-related cost stemming from the acquisition would reach around USD 2.5 billion if the proposal is confirmed.
UBS repurchased USD 1.81 billion of shares in the third quarter.
