    CREDIT Suisse Group AG has lowered profit targets at two units and pledged to cut another one billion Swiss francs (S$1.4 billion) in costs, as a slump in asset management and investment banking forces chief executive officer Tidjane Thiam to adjust his turnaround plan.

    The Zurich-based bank lowered 2018 pretax income targets for its international wealth management business and its Asian division to 1.8 billion francs and 1.6 billion francs respectively, according to a statement on Wednesday.
