UBS is a Swiss banking group serving private, corporate and institutional clients. Wealth management, asset management and investment banking form its main international businesses. These services cover financial advice, the management of investments and access to capital markets. The group operates internationally while maintaining its Swiss banking business.
Economic and market research supports those client relationships. UBS publishes analysis of economic conditions, asset markets and geopolitical developments to help clients assess investment choices. That work gives the bank a role in public discussion of events far beyond banking, including energy-market disruption and the economic effects of major international events. Its research activity sits alongside the financial services that private investors, companies and institutions buy from the group.
