ABOUT

Union Bancaire Privée (UBP) was founded in 1969 by Edgar de Picciotto, whose vision from the outset was to offer investors a high-quality and innovative wealth and asset management service. This approach has guided us through the decades and has led us to focus exclusively on the activity we excel at - global wealth management for private clients along with bespoke investment solutions for institutional clients.

In its fifty-year history, not only has the Bank maintained its independence - being fully owned by the de Picciotto family - it has also achieved remarkable growth. Today, UBP stands among the leaders in the field of wealth managament in Switzerland, and ranks among the best-capitalised banks in Europe.

WEALTH'S OPINION

This independently owned private bank from Switzerland acquired the Coutts operations in Singapore and Hong Kong back in 2015 and in 2018, reported a 20-25% growth in revenue and assets under management off the back of organic growth and new hires. That momentum is expected to continue with strong growth in Asia, in particular in Hong Kong and Singapore.

UBP may not yet be a household name in Asia but creation and management of investment portfolios is at the heart of their strengths. In particular, clients cite their alternative investment offering as something notably different to the rest of the competition.

Why UBP?

1

Ambition

UBP is growing fast and are now in the top 20 largest private banks in Asia - measured by client assets managed.

2

Independent

One of the few 'pure-play' private banks in the market, they specialise in servicing private clients and families with no 'investment banking conflicts'.

3

Investment

UBP possesses strong background in investment management and are leaders in alternative investments such as hedge funds and private equity.
