Tidjane Thiam tried to win back his troops at Credit Suisse Group AG after surviving a spying scandal, telling staff in a memo that “full accountability” has been taken with the resignation of his long-time confidante.

Recent events are “deeply regrettable” as the reputation of Switzerland’s second-largest bank has suffered and mistakes have been made, the Chief Executive Officer wrote in an internal memo seen by Bloomberg News. Credit Suisse declined to comment.
