UBS has not yet commented on the move. The development is the latest in a series of investigations into malpractice by banks. The statement said the charges came after "excellent" help from French authorities, who had been looking at allegations that UBS had been encouraging clients to open accounts in Switzerland to avoid tax between the years 2004-12.
