Working with diverse clients with specific needs, our team sees it as our top responsibility to understand each aspect of your unique and often complicated financial life.
Are you considering an exit from your business? From investment banking to business transition planning to post-liquidity wealth management, we have the experience to help you with your future plans for your business. We can connect you to the resources you need to solve any challenge that may arise.
When it comes to comprehensive wealth management, you need to look at both sides of your balance sheet. Working closely with UBS lending specialists and credit research analysts, we can help you determine the right liquidity strategy for your needs, goals and circumstances.
Partnering with resources across UBS, including the Global Family Office, the Family Office Services Group as well as our global investment bank, we integrate institutional-level business solutions for family offices. From family governance to business transition, we help bridge the generations to preserve wealth, seize opportunity and create continuity.
No one wants to outlive their money.
But you also don’t want to live with untapped potential.
A wasted resource is one that simply isn’t used. One of the things we pride ourselves on is helping our clients not only take care of their loved ones now and later, but recognize their potential for impact and influence through charitable giving and fueling causes aligned with the causes they’re most passionate about.
With the attention of a boutique family office and access to resources across the firm, we offer select clients comprehensive services that look well beyond their investment needs.
What are the causes you are passionate about? Whatever your objectives, we can help you explore new and innovative ways to make a positive impact on the world. We’ll work with you and family members to help provide education on philanthropy, practical solutions and tax-efficient investment strategies for creating a meaningful and lasting legacy.
UBS Business Transition Services can help unlock the possibilities
Too many business owners don't plan in advance for when they’re ready to exit. We can provide guidance, along with UBS Business Transition Services, to help you prepare early for the transition and what comes next.
