8th September 2022 | Hong Kong
Former Georgia Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili has sued Credit Suisse Trust in Singapore for losing $1.27 billion for failing to safeguard his investments in a fraud committed by former Switzerland-based private banker Patrice Lescaudron. The trial began in Singapore on the 5th of September 2022. At the opening statement, Credit Suisse Trust had calculated the losses at $818.2 million, instead of the estimate of $1.27 billion by Bidzina Ivanishvili. Former Georgia Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili statement at the opening: “Since 2015, former Georgia Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili had placed $1.1 billion under the custodianship of the Credit Suisse Trust.” Earlier in April 2022, Credit Suisse Life Bermuda has lost a $500 million lawsuit to former Georgian Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili for illegal trades by former Credit Suisse Private Banker Patrice Lescaudron that resulted in hundreds of millions of losses. In 2018, former Credit Suisse Private Banker Patrice Lescaudron was convicted in Switzerland for forging client signatures to 5 years imprisonment, and later committed suicide in 2020.

Credit Suisse Life Bermuda has lost a $500 million lawsuit to former Georgian Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili for illegal trades by former Credit Suisse Private Banker Patrice Lescaudron that resulted in hundreds of millions of losses.
