UBS Group completed the deal to acquire former rival Credit Suisse Group, sealing the biggest merger in banking since the 2008 financial crisis and creating a global wealth-management titan.

The takeover of Credit Suisse ends the lender’s 167-year independent existence. The announcement caps more than two months of uncertainty for employees after UBS finalized negotiations with the Swiss government over a 9 billion Swiss franc ($10 billion) guarantee against potential losses on Credit Suisse assets.
