Our solutions
Wealth & Financial Planning
Union Bancaire Privée (UK) Limited helps you to organise and structure your assets in the right way, so you can enjoy the freedom that comes with knowing you have a secure financial future.
A comprehensive wealth plan is key to taking care of your wealth for current and future generations. Whether you require a thorough review of your finances or specific advice on a particular aspect of your needs, wealth planning experts can help.
Our wealth planners are specialist advisers who analyse your personal and professional assets and suggest a flexible wealth strategy according to your needs.
Global Wealth Strategy: Personalised Financial Planning
At the beginning of our relationship with you, we’ll make sure we fully understand your circumstances, priorities and goals. Cashflow modelling provides a comprehensive overview of your current financial situation and can forecast the implications of a life event, such as selling your business, inheriting a lump sum or gifting your assets. It can also help forecast certain objectives, for example retiring at a certain age with a specified level of income.
Our clients often have assets in or connections with more than one country. We can help structure bespoke solutions which provide cross-border compliance and governance of family wealth.
Wealth Accumulation
By investing your wealth, you can seek to protect its spending power against the impact of inflation. We aim to help you maximise your investments, by making sure you’re taking full advantage of tax allowances.
Financial Protection
Life is full of surprises. Although there’s no way of knowing what’s around the corner, with the right plans in place you can make sure your finances are the last thing you or your family need to worry about when times are most challenging.
Retirement Planning
The concept of retiring means different things to each of us. For some, it’s an opportunity to take the skills developed over a lifetime of work in new directions. For others, it’s a time to start enjoying even more of what life has to offer.
Estate Planning
Inheritance is one of the most challenging areas of financial planning, where different emotions, values and expectations collide. It’s important to start talking about passing on wealth early in life so that you can begin to organise your assets before it’s too late.
Wealth Structuring, Family Governance, Philanthropy
Adopting long-term strategies that secure your wealth and legacy for future generations is integral to wealth planning. We work with you to establish appropriate ownership structures for your assets, align your family values across generations and create impact in areas that resonate with you. Our multidimensional approach enhances the overall efficiency of your wealth management strategy.

UBP Weekly View - Resilience returns to markets
Resilient macro data, softer inflation and strong corporate earnings have helped global markets recover, with equities reaching new highs and bonds extending gains. Expectations of further Fed rate cuts supported sentiment, while the USD strengthened amid JPY weakness and gold consolidation. However, with valuations near cycle peaks and policy uncertainty still looming, investors remain focused on upcoming central bank meetings for direction.

UBP Weekly View - Fragility builds in markets
The US government shutdown carries on, while the earnings season opened on a constructive note, nudging global equities higher amid softer trade rhetoric, resilient bank results and renewed hopes of Fed easing. These tailwinds, however, contrast with credit-quality concerns linked to regional-bank fraud reports and mounting unease over a potential AI-driven bubble, leaving markets more vulnerable to negative headlines. US inflation data due this week are expected to show moderate upward pressure.

“Negative interest rates have hardly any effect on the Swiss franc.”
The currency expert at the Swiss private bank Union Bancaire Privée expects the dollar to weaken further, takes a dim view of negative interest rates, and is taking advantage of low market volatility.

UBP Weekly View - Earnings season kicks off
Investors have been wary of circular AI investments, stretched equity valuations, the threat of the trade war escalating, and the ripple effects of a prolonged US government shutdown, which itself has further disrupted economic data. This week, Q3 earnings will be in the spotlight, with the US’s largest banks set to lead the reporting season.

UBP Weekly View - US shutdown delays labour data
The US government shutdown, which began on 1 October, has delayed the release of the closely watched non-farm payrolls report. Other economic data published last week were downbeat, reinforcing our expectation that the Federal Reserve will implement two 25-basis-point rate cuts (on 29 October and 10 December) to counter labour market weakness. Meanwhile, negotiations over government spending between the Democrats and Republicans are set to continue in the run-up to the third-quarter earnings season.

UBP House View - October 2025
Equities are priced to perfection, yet we remain constructive but cautious, while staying upbeat on gold, where we have raised our conviction rating to 5/5.

UBP Weekly View - Markets brace for US labour report
Divergent remarks from Federal Reserve members combined with US macroeconomic data that was generally resilient have weighed on optimism for future rate cuts. Attention now turns to this week’s labour market report as a key gauge of job creation, while President Trump is set to meet Democratic and Republican leaders in an effort to avert a government shutdown.

UBP Weekly View - Macro data to set the tone
Equities progressed following the US central bank’s 25 basis points rate cut to 4.00–4.25%, which helped fuel investor optimism. Alongside the Fed, several central banks, including the Bank of England (BoE) also met, with the latter leaving its rates unchanged at 4%. This week, attention turns to economic indicators.
