瑞士规模最大的可持续金融会议“Building Bridges”第七届大会于10月6日至8日在日内瓦举行，吸引了2,600名参会者——较去年增长25%——另有数千人通过线上方式参与。 UBP自2019年首届大会以来便一直担任赞助商，并持续支持该大会的使命：促进关于可持续金融的建设性对话，并加强金融业与更广泛经济领域之间的合作。

2026年的中东危机做到了十年倡导都未能做到的事：它成功地将关于可持续性的讨论从仅限于气候问题的阴影中拉了出来，并将其牢牢置于韧性议题的聚光灯下。

UBP’s Impact investment franchise continues its growth trajectory, fuelled by the team’s conviction and dedication. The annual Impact Report gives an overview of their activities and achievements in 2025.

Over 2,000 participants joined Switzerland’s largest sustainable finance gathering, which was held in Geneva from 30 September to 2 October. UBP was proud to continue its long-standing support as a silver sponsor of this event.

Our impact investing franchise keeps growing, and with it the team’s conviction and dedication. Through the case studies and data in their annual report they give us a glimpse of their eventful year.

From 9–12 December, Building Bridges attracted over 3,000 professionals from banks, insurance companies, big corporations, governments, international organisations, NGOs and academia for more than 70 plenary sessions, discussions, and workshops. Combined with over 6,000 viewers online, attendance at the 2024 edition of Switzerland’s leading sustainable finance event reached a record high.

We explore the importance of nature in our economies and societies – the concept of 'nature-positive', and how businesses can contribute to this global societal goal – in our interview with Dr Noëlle Kümpel, Senior Advisor at BirdLife International.

As part of its partnership with Peace Parks Foundation, UBP is guided by their expertise in biodiversity measurement and applies this knowledge when engaging with the corporate sector. The aim is to help companies learn from the conservation specialists and disclose more accurate data on nature.

Research confirms that companies that do not embed sustainability targets into executive remuneration strategies struggle to motivate executives to adopt sustainable practices, leading to misalignment with societal expectations and stakeholder interests.

2023 offered a mixed bag for sustainability. While economic anxieties dominated the news cycle, significant strides were made in recognising the interconnectedness of environmental and financial well-being.
