UBS AM Portfolio holdings
UBS AM is the US asset manager of UBS and grew out of Brinson Partners, an investment firm founded by Gary Brinson and made independent in 1989. Swiss Bank Corporation bought Brinson Partners in 1994, and once the bank merged with UBS, its founder Gary Brinson, who had run Swiss Bank's asset management business, became chief investment officer of UBS Asset Management. In 2024 the business took in Credit Suisse Asset Management and two of its own units, UBS Hedge Fund Solutions and UBS O’Connor, though the O’Connor business was later sold. Its clients are mainly institutions such as retirement plans, government bodies, endowments and foundations.
