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 – As taxas de rendibilidade atingiram máximos de várias décadas, mas as ações mantêm-se estáveis
As taxas de rendibilidade a longo prazo atingiram máximos de várias décadas, uma vez que os dados sólidos dos EUA e os preços elevados da energia reforçaram as expectativas de um novo aumento das taxas de juro por parte da Reserva Federal dos EUA (Fed).

Como a IA conquistou os mercados obrigacionistas
Em 2026, os cinco hiperescaladores (Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta e Oracle) irão gastar cerca de 820 mil milhões de dólares em despesas de capital, em comparação com 750 mil milhões de dólares em fluxos de caixa operacionais. Isto significa que os seus investimentos estão a exceder os fluxos de caixa disponíveis e que este défice de financiamento tem de ser coberto através de dívida.

UBP Weekly View — A Fed sobe as taxas; o petróleo e as taxas de rendibilidade dão o tom
A Reserva Federal dos EUA aumentou as suas taxas de juro em 25 pontos-base (pb), para 3,75–4,00%, por unanimidade, justificando a medida como uma precaução para evitar que os preços da energia se repercutam na inflação subjacente, enquanto o Banco de Inglaterra manteve as suas taxas em 3,75%, apesar de uma orientação mais restritiva constante na ata da sua reunião.

Financiamento da implantação da IA
O boom da IA levou os cinco hiperescaladores mundiais (Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta e Oracle) a uma nova era de financiamento. Em 2026, prevê-se que as suas despesas de capital excedam o fluxo de caixa operacional, com os investimentos a atingirem, segundo as projeções, 5,6 biliões de dólares até 2030, o que levanta questões fundamentais sobre como esta expansão sem precedentes será financiada.

UBP Weekly View — Os bancos centrais avançam com medidas de aperto monetário à medida que a inflação aumenta
A subida do preço do petróleo para mais de 100 dólares por barril, num contexto de escalada do conflito no Médio Oriente, provocou uma onda generalizada de vendas de obrigações do Estado e de ações na semana passada, à medida que os receios de inflação impulsionaram uma subida acentuada das taxas de rendibilidade nos EUA, na zona euro e no Reino Unido.

UBP House View - September 2026
Our outlook for risk assets remains constructive, supported by broadening earnings growth, though tempered by persistent inflation and an oil market showing little sign of easing. Against this backdrop, we are raising our target range for US 10-year yields to 4.25–4.75%, with rising yields and oil prices standing out as the principal risks to our central scenario.

O que motiva a nossa especialização em planeamento de património
O planeamento do património envolve frequentemente algumas das decisões mais importantes que uma família terá de tomar.

UBP Weekly View — Mercado de trabalho resistente; a inflação e a escalada da tensão no Irão impulsionam a subida das taxas de rendibilidade
Os dados positivos sobre o emprego reacenderam as preocupações com a inflação e aumentaram as probabilidades de um aumento das taxas de juro, uma vez que as tensões crescentes entre os EUA e o Irão impulsionaram para cima as taxas de rendibilidade dos títulos do Tesouro, dos Bunds e dos Gilt, embora as probabilidades de um aumento das taxas pelo Fed em setembro se tenham mantido estáveis nos 60%.
