Credit Suisse Group AG asked U.S. staff to return to the office on Feb. 1, as a decline in coronavirus cases paves the way for Wall Street to start bringing people back to their desks.

Employees were asked to return next month in a memo from the bank’s chief executive for the Americas, Christian Meissner, according to a person familiar with the matter. The bank will still offer flexibility for hybrid work schedules of some employees, the person said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. A representative for the bank declined to comment.
