Union Bancaire Privée

Overview:

Union Bancaire Privée is based in Geneva and is one of Switzerland's leading and most strongly capitalised banks.
Built on a strong foundation of entrepreneurial vision and innovative drive, it draws on the top financial talents to achieve capital protection combined with returns.

Now, as ever, our Bank concentrates on just one profession: asset management for private and institutional clients. This activity comprises three business divisions: private banking, institutional asset management and alternative asset management.

Pioneer of alternative asset management almost thirty years ago, and an acknowledged world leader in this sector today, the Bank offers advanced know-how in building and assembling absolute-return portfolios.

This approach, combined with highly personalised service, has made Union Bancaire Privée one of the world's top-ranking privately-owned asset management banks, based on client assets.

Strengthened by selective acquisitions and constant, robust growth, our Bank has established an international presence through a network of subsidiaries, branches, and representative offices in over 20 locations. It employs around 1,300 people and the Bank had CHF 123.7 billion (USD 124.5 billion) in assets under management as at 30 June 2008.
