Generations after the Holocaust, Congress still seeking answers on bank’s ties to Nazi crimes
A 1999 settlement in U.S. court prompted Credit Suisse and UBS to pay $1.25 billion to Holocaust victims whose stolen assets had not been returned. But bankers are still dealing with the fallout of the Third Reich’s actions more than 80 years after its collapse. An April court ruling in New York also left open the chance for litigation over Credit Suisse’s Nazi-linked accounts.
