UBS Plans to Distance a Key Unit
Keywords:
Swiss banking regulators are requiring UBS to make its investment banking unit a separate legal entity with its headquarters in another country. This is an effort to ring fence the investment banking operation so that the Swiss government does not have to come up with funds to recapitalize the Swiss bank in another financial crisis. Credit Suisse and UBS have combined assets larger than the GDP of Switzerland. Under the new structure the investment banking unit would have its own capital and be overseen by local regulators. It is still not clear if the local regulators would not demand that the Swiss government come in and cover future losses at the investment bank.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
