Now that Credit Suisse has dropped the First Boston name from its investment banking division, I would propose getting rid of this page. The First Boston page, which covers the history of the First Boston investment bank from its founding in 1932 through the ten years it was known as Credit Suisse First Boston, should be the main page.

If anyone feels strongly about keeping some of the information on this page, it can be moved to Credit Suisse under the heading Investment Banking Division.

Now it is done.

They are now called Credit Suisse Securites (USA) LLC. Check out this site: http://www.ny.frb.org/newsevents/news/markets/2006/an060117.html.

I suggest a section re the Iran fine should be included:

Since 2006 Credit Suisse has dropped the First Boston name from its investment banking division. The First Boston page, which covers the history of the First Boston investment bank from its founding in 1932 through the ten years it was known as Credit Suisse First Boston, should cover this topic and/or this content could be moved to Credit Suisse under the heading Investment Banking Division.-- — Keithbob • Talk • 14:02, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I would keep the articles separate. I don't think there is a good place to drop this article into the credit suisse article that maintains the information. This article has the potential to be built out further on its own given nearly 20 years of history that is associated with this name. |►

• Keep many organizations of this size have separate articles on different divisions and business units. Ideally the

    • So you are suggesting that this article CSFB should be merged with First Boston. I have not objection to that along with a redirect from this page so folks get to the page under either search term.-- — Keithbob • Talk • 17:02, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • I think the two pages should be merged. First Boston redirects to the CS page. The period of CSFB was relatively short in the main company's history. The CS page should probably be called Credit Suisse Group, as that's the main parent. But either way it should be merged. Vote strongly for yes.
