4. SOUNDBITE (English) John Tiner, chairman of the audit committee of Credit Suisse bank:
"Upon the announcement of Mr. Khan's appointment to the executive board of UBS on the 29th of August, the COO considered the risk of Mr. Khan breaching his contractual obligations.

STORYLINE:
Swiss bank Credit Suisse said Tuesday that a senior executive and the head of its security operation have resigned over a decision to snoop on a former wealth management chief who joined rival UBS.
Credit Suisse said chief operating officer Pierre-Olivier Bouee took responsibility and the bank accepted his immediate resignation.
Its head of global security services is also leaving immediately.
The bank said Bouee ordered the security chief to "initiate the observation" of former Credit Suisse wealth management chief Iqbal Khan on Aug. 29, when UBS announced Khan's appointment.
Bouee had said he decided alone to keep tabs on Khan "in order to protect the interests of the bank" and didn't discuss the matter with CEO Tidjane Thiam or other top managers.
John Tiner, the chairman of the audit committee of Credit Suisse bank, said there was no evidence that Thiam had been informed about the snooping.
Bank officials said Bouee had been concerned that Khan might try to poach employees from Credit Suisse to join him at UBS.
Credit Suisse said it ultimately turned up no indications that Khan had tried to poach employees or clients.
The "extraordinary" and "irregular" episode - as top executives put it - testifies to the intense rivalry between UBS and Credit Suisse, whose key offices co-habit the Paradeplatz square in downtown Zurich that is the heart of Switzerland's vibrant and well-heeled financial sector.
