Credit Suisse has teamed up with Bluewin, the Swiss internet service provider, and media company TA-Media to launch a financial services portal on the internet.

The financial portal, based in Zurich, will provide up-to-date economic and financial information as well as analysis and advisory tools for all key areas of investments, such as equities and equity derivatives, investment funds, real estate, retirement planning and tax. Each of the partners will hold a third of the equity capital. The portal is expected to go live in January 2001.
