With its tight banking supervision and great economic and political stability, Luxembourg offers strict respect for privacy and attractive tax rates and conditions. This makes it a leader in financial activities, being the biggest private banking centre in the Eurozone and the second-largest in the world for investment funds. Furthermore, the credit rating for Luxembourg stands at AAA, the highest level among the three major credit agencies (S&P, Moody’s and Fitch).
UBP has been active in Luxembourg since 1969 and now operates there through its subsidiary Union Bancaire Privée (Europe) S.A.

UBP Luxembourg is subject to the oversight of Luxembourg’s financial regulator, the CSSF (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier) and fulfils the requirements set out in the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive.
