QIA has invested billions into Credit Suisse. In 2012, QIA (Qatar Holding LLC) entered into a joint venture with CS. As of May 30, 2017, QIA held almost 18% stake in Credit Suisse (CS). However, in November 2016 QIA only held a 4.93% stake in CS.

That said, just recently, QIA has been unexpectedly cutting its holdings in CS — it is now down to 15.91% (still significant). Zero hedge has an interesting take on the recent downsizing — see HERE.

Credit Suisse has a big office at 1 Cabot Square in London. The building is located in London’s Canary Warf and is known as the Credit Suisse Building.

In 2012, The Credit Suisse Building was purchased by Qatar Investment Authority from CS and subsequently leased back to CS.

In Jan 2016, QIA was going to sell the property, but decided not to around 2016 despite receiving two offers for the building. However, Credit Suisse, which leases the building from QIA, is experiencing a lot of sub-tenant vacancies due to BREXIT fallout and banks moving offices to Europe.

UPDATE (3/2/2018) It is possible there is a connection to Kushner and 666 Fifth Ave lurking in here via some combination of QIA, Credit Suisse, and Vornado Realty Trust.

  • Article from The Intercept_ : https://archive.is/I30Dx (“Kushner made a direct pitch to Qatar’s minister of finance in April 2017 in an attempt to secure investment in . . . 666 Fifth Avenue property in New York City.”).
  • Article from NBC News: https://archive.is/Ad0tD (“ In the weeks after Kushner Companies’ talks with the Qatari government and HBJ collapsed, the White House strongly backed an economically punishing blockade against Qatar, led by Saudi Arabia and the UAE, citing the country’s support for terrorism as the impetus.”). Article also references Turkey. For some additional Turkey connections to the TrumpRU tale, see Supp.4 (search “Alfa Turkey Telecom”) and this Twitter thread HERE.
  • Credit Suisse and Vornado Realty Trust work together.
  • Vornado’s CEO, Stephen Roth, and Donald Trump have done quite a bit of business together (including giving the Don a bailout).

Strange.
