Too afraid to ask….

I’m sure most of this forum has seen the meme floating around about Credit Suisse turning into “Debt Suisse”. To me, a simpleton M&A banker, this doesn’t make sense why it’s a clever joke.

4 years of accounting courses and 2 years on the desk has taught me that dr = inflows, cr = outflows. Is this a play on words that revenue is technically a credit and their revenue is declining? Is this just a niche FIG-targeted meme that needs explanation? Or is it a language barrier as I am not natively from the United States?

Too afraid to ask my team and seem foolish.

Because to normal people debit sounds like debt and credit sounds like credit cards = money
