Why it is here
Euromoney named UBS world’s best for family office services in 2026 (and 2025), describing Global Family and Institutional Wealth as an institutional-grade FO franchise. CNBC’s May 2026 Inside Wealth coverage of the UBS Global Family Office Report independently documents the bank surveying hundreds of family-office clients on allocation—franchise scale, not brochure copy. PWM/The Banker’s 2024 winners’ profiles quote leadership on the GFIW platform for entrepreneurs’ family offices. Post–Credit Suisse absorption remains the structural diligence item (client migration and legacy reputational overhang).
Who it is for
Complex global UHNW and institutional family offices that need Swiss booking depth plus IB/markets toolkit—and can diligence CS-legacy team and booking-entity clarity.
