since the financial crisis in 2008 share prices of credit suisse and other swiss banks including ubs have remained mostly stagnant or flat. this is seen as a result of the aftermath of the collapse of lehman brothers, which caused a large loss in consumer and market participant trust and confidence in the banking industry. the loss in confidence is reflected in the large loss of share prices across the swiss banking sector after 2008, which have never recovered (and possibly never will) to pre-financial crisis levels.
