Swiss bank many employees of which reportedly suffered a premature death.

UBS is a Swiss bank which in March 2023 took over its smaller rival Credit Suisse in a deal worth more than $3 billion.[1]

Dead bankers

UBS Group AG, with over $5 trillion in invested assets, is Switzerland's largest bank. The company has a sprawling international footprint, with over half of its wealth management assets coming from clients in the United States. Experts believe these customers are drawn to strict bank-client laws in Switzerland. In recent decades, scandals have embroiled both UBS and its latest acquisition, Credit Suisse. After regulators quickly approved of the merger, fresh litigation risks have come to light.

Michael Tyler has alleged that several UBS employees have suffered a premature death.[2]
