Harris Associates disclosed a stake in Credit Suisse Group AG of more than 10% after converting some of its holdings into American depositary receipts, underscoring its place as the bank’s biggest shareholder.

The investment firm owned 266 million shares, or 10.1% of the total, as of July 31, Harris Associates said in a US regulatory filing on Wednesday. The Swiss bank’s annual reports have long listed the firm with a 5.2% stake, which was the level it disclosed in 2013.
