Die 4-teilige Dokuserie erzählt exklusiv, wie die Menschen an der Spitze der Credit Suisse über Jahrzehnte eine einzig auf Eigenprofit orientierte Firmenkultur gelebt haben, gierig und riskant – bis die Seifenblase platzt und die Credit Suisse von ihrer ärgsten Konkurrentin, der UBS, in einer beispiellosen Nacht-und-Nebel-Aktion

This makes the colossus 'too big to fail' — until, despite everything, Credit Suisse falls. However, this decline proves to be self-inflicted...
