About UBS

UBS is a Swiss bank founded about 200 years ago in Basel and Zurich, Switzerland. The bank is still officially headquartered in Switzerland, however the investment banking operations are largely run from London (based in the City near Liverpool Street), New York and other financial centers. UBS is considered to be part of the Bulge Bracket investment banks, and is split is 4 big divisions: UBS Investment Bank (including M&A and Sales and Trading), Global Asset Management (UBS is the 2nd largest asset manager in the world), Wealth Management, and UBS Swiss Bank, which is the retail banking part of the bank. Because the UBS is a Swiss bank with a strong wealth management business, UBS grew by acquiring other financial institutions especially in the US, including the asset manager Paine Webber in November 2000, and investment banks Kidder Peabody, SG Warburg and Dillon, Read in 1995. UBS only really came to prominence when John Costas (a former bond trader at Credit Suisse) became CEO in 1998 and also when Ken Moelis (an investment banker that has now set up his own boutique called Moelis) started to build up the M&A franchise.
