We are extremely proud of this partnership. After all, there can hardly be another personality who embodies the values of our company better than this global sportsman with Swiss roots. The bank also fully subscribes to Federer’s self-imposed commitment to achieving top performance at all times and in all circumstances. His sporting successes have already made him a sporting legend at just 30 years old. But no less impressive is Federer’s very fair and respectful manner toward his opponents on and off the court. However, it is not just his achievements as a sportsman that have shaped Roger Federer’s positive image all around the world. Much valuable work is done by his foundation, which he set up in 2003 in order to support education projects, particu- larly in Africa. This brings us to something else we have in common – social responsibility. Credit Suisse, too, is convinced that long-term commercial success is directly dependent on a stable and healthy social environment. That’s why we have dedicated ourselves – together with our staff and partner organizations – to working on behalf of society and social issues for several years. For the same reason, we agreed to make an annual contribution of 1 million dollars to our sponsorship partnership with the Roger Federer Foundation (RFF) over a period of 10 years. This contribution is primarily channeled into a new RFF initiative in the area of early childhood education in Malawi, from which more than 50,000 children will benefit. But the Malawi project is just one of many school projects that Credit Suisse supports as part of its Global Education Initiative, which was launched in 2008. With the help of proven international partner organizations, this gives thousands of disadvantaged children and young people of school age the chance to attend a place of education, while at the same time helping to improve the quality of education on offer. You can find out how Credit Suisse meets its responsibility towards society in other ways too, by reading our annual Corporate Responsibility Report, or simply by visiting our website.

Congratulations on your victory in Paris! Though you apparently managed to catch a cold from your children. Any improvement there? Yes. On Sunday and Monday I had a rather sore throat and congestion. But I’m OK now. What do you take when you come down with something like that? I only reach to the medicine cabinet in extreme situations. If things get really bad, I might take a flu remedy and occasionally something for the nose. But generally speaking, I’m extremely cautious about taking medication. You have to be so careful given the long list of banned substances. But that doesn’t leave you with much time to get completely fit for theATP Finals in London. That’s true. Having played the final in France on Sunday, it was only yesterday and today that I’ve been able to relax a bit, and tomorrow I’m off to London, where I have a few more commercial commitments as well as training sessions. But actually I have no great concerns about not being fit in time for the tournament. Apart from anything else, my body is still benefiting from the six-week break I took before the tournament in Basel. And the twins are now better, too? They had rather bad ear infections and one of them even had to be prescribed antibiotics. But they’ve now bounced back. Your family spends almost the whole year living out of a suitcase. Are you always prepared for these things and armed with the standard medications and household remedies? Mirka is amazingly well-organized in that respect. We carry all the important meds from Switzerland around with us for the Photo: Christian Schnur Christian Photo: children, for ourselves and indeed the entire team. > 6 Roger Federer You’ve booked into a Zurich hotel for three nights between It’s true that moving constantly between different hotel rooms is the tournament in Paris and the one in London.

    Announcement The Match for Africa 3 New Date for Charity Tennis Event: On April 10, 2017, Roger Federer and Andy Murray will face off against each other in the Zurich Hallenstadion to raise money for the Roger Federer Foundation Zurich, October 12, 2016 – "The Match for Africa 3", the third charity tennis event for the Roger Federer Foundation, will now be held on Monday, April 10, 2017, and not November 22, 2016, as originally planned. Roger Federer's opponent in the Zurich Hallenstadion will be none other than the three-time Grand Slam champion and two-time Olympic gold medallist Andy Murray. "I am extremely happy that Andy – one of the best tennis players in the world – immediately agreed to come to Zurich to help raise money for my foundation. However, I'm even happier that I'll finally get to play in front of my fans again next spring," said Roger. Tickets for the Exhibition Night, which also offers a great entertainment program in addition to the main event, will be available on Ticketcorner from November 16, 2016. All of the proceeds from this event will go to the Roger Federer Foundation. The Foundation provides funding to children living in poverty to help them realize their potential.

Ich fühl- te mich ins letzte Jahrtausend zurückversetzt, genauer ins Jahr 1998, aus dem sich zwei Ereignisse unauslöschbar in mein Gedächtnis eingegraben hatten. Der EV Zug, der Stolz meiner Heimatstadt, hatte sich damals gegen die Grossmächte des Schweizer Eishockeys durchgesetzt und zum ersten Mal den Titel in den kleinsten Vollkanton des Landes geholt. Wenige Monate später versetzten Martina Hingis, Patty Schnyder und Emmanuelle Gagliardi eine ganze Nation in eine Fed-Cup-Euphorie, die Heimspiele gegen Frankreich in Sitten und im Final gegen Spanien in Genf bewegten die Mas- sen in nie geahntem Ausmass, dementsprechend gross war die Leere nach dem knappen Scheitern. 18 Schweizer Meister wurden seither ohne Zuger Finalbeteiligung gekürt, bis das Team in diesem Frühling die Prognostiker Lügen strafte und erst im Showdown am übermächtigen SC Bern scheiterte. Seit jener Zeit sind auch 18 Fed-Cup-Titel ohne Schweizer Zutun im letzten Akt vergeben worden, eine Serie, die in den letzten Tagen hätte reissen können, ja reissen sollen. Timea Bacsinszky, Viktorija Golubic, Belinda Bencic und immer noch Hingis waren nach Minsk gereist, als Favoritinnen gegen die ohne Viktoria Asarenka angetretenen Weissrussinnen.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2019 Foreword
    ANNUAL REPORT 2019 Foreword This year at the Foundation has, for me, been marked by great antici- pation and intensive preparations for a dream that was finally going to come true. The sixth edition of the successful “Match for Africa” would be held for the first time on the African continent in my moth- er's homeland. Not just anywhere, but in Cape Town, directly on the Atlantic coast, in a spectacular football arena. Shortly before, I once again had the chance to take a personal look at the impact of our programmes in Namibia. It was there that I saw our specially developed Early Learning Kiosk in action for the first time. The teachers' enthusiasm was infectious. Above all, I was impressed by the ease with which the teachers used the tablet to ob-serve and document the development of the children. I was particu-larly pleased when the teachers reported that they can use the moni-toring app to better assess the children and adapt the lessons to each child's needs. After all, our entire commitment is about giving chil-dren the best possible support and guaranteeing a good start to edu-cation. The evening of 7 February 2020, when the Match in Africa finally took place, I will always remember as a magical moment. Together with over 51,000 frenetic fans, friends, and family, we celebrated an unfor-gettable tennis festival and set a world record for spectators at a ten-nis match. The children and teenagers of the Zip Zap Circus School and the Youth Choir Ndlovu enchanted everyone Roger visiting a preschool in the East of Zambia, April 2018 with their show and reminded them that the event was being held for the kids’ sakes.

  • ROGER FEDERER: ES WAR SEIN «MATCH for AFRICA» Hakan Aki
    ROGER FEDERER: ES WAR SEIN «MATCH FOR AFRICA» Hakan Aki Roger Feder gegen Andy Murray. So lautete der 3. «Match for Africa» im Hallenstadion Zürich. Neben spektakulären Ballwechseln und mitreissenden Showacts gab es rund 1,4 Millionen Franken für die Roger Federer Stiftung. Bild: Hakan Aki Wie beliebt Roger Federer nicht nur in der Schweiz, sondern auf der ganzen Welt ist, bestätigte sich wieder einmal am vergangenen Montag. «King Roger», rief und alle kamen ins Hallenstadion. Dort veranstaltete der Australien Open Sieger 2017 ein «Showmatch» zugunsten der Roger Federer Stiftung. Gegner war kein geringerer als die Weltnummer 1 «Sir» Andy Murray. Für seinen Freund Roger kam der Olympiasieger von 2016 auf Stippvisite. Es war Murrays erster Besuch in Zürich. Nach den Begegnungen gegen Rafael Nadal 2010 und Stan Wawrinka 2014 war das Spiel gegen Andy Murray das 3. «Match for Africa.» KÖNIGLICHER EMPFANG Wie es einem «Sir» gebührt, wurde Murray im ausverkauften Hallenstadion von der Zürich «Caledonian Pipe Band» empfangen. Diese pfiff dem Schotten den Marsch. Natürlich auf dem Dudelsack und im Kilt. Ob die Herren etwas drunter trugen, bleibt ihr Geheimnis. Es folgte eine Darbietung des «Zip Zap Circus», der eXtra für Roger Federer aus Südafrika anreiste. Der Zirkus bildet nicht nur Nachwuchsartisten aus, sondern setzt sich auch für das friedliche Zusammenleben der Kulturen ein. Jesse Ritch, der kongolesische Wurzeln hat, performte seinen neuen Hit «Good side of life.» SPEKTAKULÄRE SPIELZÜGE FÜR EINEN GUTEN ZWECK Dann ging das Spektakel erst richtig los. Egal, wohin der Ball auch kam, Roger Federer erlief sie fast alle. Mal durch die Beine, dann wieder kurz vor der Line während der Rückwärtsbewegung oder über Kopf.
