By Adria CalatayudUBS Group said it agreed to sell Credit Suisse Insurance Linked Strategies, an investment business formerly owned by Credit Suisse, to the unit's managers for an undisclosed price. The Swiss banking giant said Tuesday that CSILS will be renamed and operate independently from the group after the deal is closed. The deal is expected to be completed in the second half of 2024, subject to regulatory approvals, UBS said. UBS bought Credit Suisse in a deal engineered by Swiss authorities and has been recently shedding assets deemed non-core that were previously owned by its former rival as part of the integration process.
