UBS Group Portfolio holdings
UBS Group AG, formed through the 1998 merger of Union Bank of Switzerland and Swiss Bank Corporation with roots dating back to 1862, is a Swiss multinational investment bank and financial services firm headquartered in Zurich. Renowned for its dominance in wealth management, UBS serves high-net-worth individuals and families globally, managing trillions in assets, while also offering investment banking, asset management, and retail banking services in Switzerland. The firm has weathered significant challenges, including a major bailout during the 2008 financial crisis, but has since refocused on stability and sustainable growth, emphasizing digital transformation and ESG (environmental, social, governance) investing. With a strong European base and a global reach, UBS remains a cornerstone of the international financial landscape.
