MEXICO CITY: Credit Suisse is among the lenders owed the most money by embattled Mexican finance company Credito Real, which has begun bankruptcy proceedings for $2.6 billion in deBTS, a local business newspaper reported Thursday.
Private documents show that Credit Suisse is owed over $100 million by Credito Real, according to a report from Mexican business paper El CEO. That would be the largest debt Credito Real owes to a foreign bank, the report said.
Reuters was unable to confirm the El CEO report. Credit Suisse and Credito Real did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Mexico's national development bank, NAFIN, is owed the most of any entity, with $119 million in unpaid deBTS, according to El CEO. NAFIN didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
Credito Real announced it was beginning bankruptcy proceedings in July after defaulting earlier in the year.
