Credit Suisse failed to fully investigate recent allegations that it supplied bank accounts to Nazi Party members before and after World War II, and pushed aside an outside lawyer it had charged with overseeing an internal probe into the matter, according to a Senate committee investigation.

The Senate investigation was prompted by the Simon Wiesenthal Center, which in 2020 said it believed that there were accounts at Credit Suisse holding money looted from Jewish victims, based on a list it had of 12,000 Nazi Party members and a Nazi-affiliated labour union in Argentina.
