UBP Lugano
With more than 35 staff and well-established roots in the area for more than forty years, the Ticino Union Bancaire Privée branch offers its services mostly to Italian-speaking private and institutional clients.
Private Banking
Since its beginnings, Union Bancaire Privée’s private banking service has provided comprehensive and privileged advice to an international private clientele.
Institutional asset management
The Lugano branch offers ad-hoc investment solutions through investment funds authorised on the Swiss market and in many other European countries. In conjunction with the head office, we can offer alternative investment solutions on request.
Independent asset managers
For more than twenty years, our team of around twenty professionals have devoted themselves exclusively to independent asset managers. In line with the Bank’s values, the service offered is personalised, fast and flexible.
As our partner, you will enjoy privileged access to our banking infrastructure and experts, through three core services – Marketing, Operations and Advisory.
In Ticino, we have a specialised team who deal exclusively with independent asset managers. Clients from independent asset managers can open accounts not only in Lugano, but also in Geneva, Zurich, London, Luxembourg and Nassau.
