The two rival banks have a lot in common, essentially identical cultures and similar scandals (though arguably CS has been more poorly run in recent years). Current CEO at CS ran a big part of UBS before taking the top job

Mercury Treasury takes a hefty cut (0.6%) of VUSXX yield. Any alternatives other than opening a Vanguard account?
