A parliamentary investigation into the collapse of Credit Suisse will keep its files closed for 50 years, according to a parliamentary committee document, a level of secrecy that has triggered concern among Swiss historians.

The document means the investigating commission would hand over its files to the Swiss Federal Archives after a longer gap than the usual 30 years to ensure high levels of confidentiality apply to the investigation, which has generated huge public interest.

    What absolute bullshit. I think the people impacted by this fiasco deserve answers now not 50 years from now!

      100%, this is such obvious “hide this shit until everyone involved is dead”.

      I guess the upside is that this implies that the investigation actually did an investigation… meanwhile the Swiss public starts investing in cryogenics. But seriously, maybe someone should put up ‘DRS GME’ billboards in Switzerland.
