ZURICH - Credit Suisse posted a 21% fall in third-quarter net profit to 434 million Swiss francs ($476 million), hit by a higher tax rate and a 214 million Swiss franc charge to settle allegations of corruption surrounding loans to Mozambique it helped arrange.

It said it expected an impairment in the fourth quarter of around 1.6 billion Swiss francs in respect of the remaining investment bank-related goodwill on its balance sheet, which primarily relates to the Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette acquisition in 2000, and thus expected to report a net loss in the fourth quarter.
