Credit Suisse is said to have violated the regulations regarding mortgage-backed securities.
Credit Suisse Securities and other CS units were prohibited from acting as issuers or advisors for investment funds, according to a statement from the SEC published on Thursday night. Nevertheless, they worked in these functions.
According to the information, the New Jersey Superior Court closed the case with a settlement order in October 2022. Specifically, in the SEC settlement, the CS entities will now pay over $7.7 million in restitution and interest, as well as $3.3 million in civil penalties.
