Accessing all of UBS Private Wealth Management, focused on you
Guided by your needs and objectives we leverage all that UBS Private Wealth Management offers, including extensive planning capabilities, thought leadership and portfolio strategy. In addition, we deliver an entire suite of Family Office services to find the most effective solutions for you.
Our team works collaboratively on your behalf to access solutions and experts across our vast global firm. We will also coordinate with your other professional advisors to deliver well-aligned recommendations.

Our conversations will focus on:
The UBS Investment Bank. If you’re considering the sale of your business, we can help assemble the right presale advisory team, including coordinating with our investment banking team, advanced planning team and our extended network of specialists for insight into structuring your transaction, appraisals, valuations as well as post-sale planning. Working together, we’ll help ensure you have the appropriate strategy and take the right steps at the right time to make the most of your sale.
UBS Family Advisory and Philanthropy Services. In our practice, we’ve found that many parents don’t feel comfortable sharing financial information with their children, even when they’re grown. That can lead to heirs being unprepared for the responsibilities that come with significant wealth. Together with UBS Family Advisory and Philanthropy Services, we can help host and facilitate family meetings and financial educational opportunities that encourage your family to openly communicate—perhaps for the first time. We believe open communication is what makes a family flourish.
We’re committed to helping you develop a charitable giving program that reflects your vision and your values, but also aligns strategically with your overall wealth plan. For select clients, our team is proud to introduce the UBS Optimus Foundation, a global network of charitable foundations. The UBS Optimus Foundation focuses on programs in the areas of child health, education and protection. Through the Foundation, we can work with you to transform good ideas into great programs for the benefit of vulnerable children around the world.

At today's policy meeting, the FOMC statement was changed to remove the
tightening bias, opening the door to rate cuts. However, the statement said
that "[t]he Committee does not expect it will be appropriate to reduce the
target range until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving
sustainably toward 2 percent."
