SINGAPORE/LONDON—The euro and Swiss franc regained some lost ground on Thursday, as markets reacted positively to the Swiss central bank’s support for Credit Suisse, ahead of a difficult meeting for ECB rate setters.
The euro was up 0.4 percent at $1.06225 having lost 1.4 percent a day earlier, its biggest percentage fall in six months, as the focus of fears about the banking sector spread across the Atlantic from the collapsed U.S.–based Silicon Valley Bank to the much larger Credit Suisse.
