Partnership with the University of St. Gallen
In 2021, Credit Suisse began a partnership with the University of St. Gallen (HSG) to foster research and education programs to develop expertise among the disciplines of finance, management and law.
The ten-year partnership includes three areas of funding: As founding and strategic partner, Credit Suisse is contributing CHF 10 million to establish the HSG Center for Financial Services Innovation, which will include the creation of several professorships. Credit Suisse is contributing CHF 3 million toward SQUARE – previously known as the HSG Learning Center – and CHF 7 million to help establish various cooperation activities around the campus, including the new HSG Campus Bank. The Campus Bank is, however, just one part of the larger context Credit Suisse wants to create to bring value to HSG students in relation to the subjects of banking, skills development, and career planning.
