This report filed on Form 6-K contains information on Credit Suisse Group AG and consists of the Credit Suisse Financial Release 3Q11, which is attached as an exhibit to this Form 6-K and all of which, except the sections entitled “Dear shareholders” and “Investor information”, is incorporated herein by reference. On or about November 10, 2011, Credit Suisse Group AG will publish and file with the SEC the Financial Report 3Q11, which will include additional disclosures on (i) fair value of financial instruments, (ii) loans, allowance for loan losses and credit quality, (iii) derivatives and hedging activities, (iv) investment securities, (v) guarantees and commitments, (vi) assets pledged or assigned, and (vii) transfers of financial assets and variable interest entities.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to “Credit Suisse Group”, “Credit Suisse,” “the Group,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Credit Suisse Group AG and its consolidated subsidiaries and the term “the Bank” means Credit Suisse AG, the Swiss bank subsidiary of the Group, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

This report on Form 6-K (including the exhibits hereto) is hereby incorporated by reference into the Registration Statements on Form F-3 (file nos. 333-158199 and 333-174243).

The Credit Suisse Financial Release 3Q11 contains information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Group's independent registered public accounting firm has not completed its review of the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and the Group has not finalized its Financial Report for the period. Accordingly, such financial information is subject to completion of quarter-end procedures which may result in changes to that information.

In addition, in the future the Group and others on its behalf may make statements that constitute forward-looking statements.

When evaluating forward-looking statements, you should carefully consider the cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information, the risk factors and other information set forth in the Group’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010, and subsequent annual reports on Form 20-F filed by the Group with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Group’s reports on Form 6-K furnished to or filed with the SEC, and other uncertainties and events.
