SNB’s Hildebrand: Reason for silence was lack of information
- Clear answers needed
- Was only clear 2 days ago how allegations arose
- Waited until all facts were clear
- I acted correctly at all times
- Not aware of any legal breach
- SNB rules meet European standards (!)
- Turbulent times demand more transparency
- First questions arose from govt on December 15
- There was no short-term currency speculation
- Family portfolio is for long-term purposes
- Was unaware of wife’s transaction
- Shouldn’t have let wife make transaction
- Gave profit to charity before Christmas (aww…)
- Hits back at breach of bank secrecy for political gain
- Won’t resign over currency trades
- Says wife was not informed about SNB policy plans
- Willing to reveal all account details to proper authorities (he hasn’t already?)
- Hopes credibility of SNB not damaged
