Our CSR Team in Hong Kong organised a “Summer of Wellness” programme for colleagues –  an initiative that demonstrates UBP's commitment to fostering a culture of health and well-being, not only within the organisation but also in the local community.

Union Bancaire Privée (UBP) is pleased to announce the appointment of Teresa Lee as Region Head North Asia and Chief Executive Hong Kong.

We recently concluded a series of dynamic mid-year Investment Outlook events in key global cities, all with the theme of “Back to the Future.” 

Hubbis met with Eric Morin recently to learn more about UBP’s current momentum in Southeast Asia, the bank’s key focus areas, his strategic priorities, and his vision for the future of private banking in the region.

The beauty of working for a pure play is the core focus on wealth management, where the business is not subjected to the aggressive risk culture associated with investment banking, nor exposed to the cyclical corporate lending of commercial banking.

The mood around Hong Kong’s markets is pretty gloomy these days.

Citywire Asia (27.11.2023) - In a momentous year marked by a mega-merger, ongoing market turmoil and geopolitical uncertainties, Union Bancaire Privée (UBP) has done anything but slow down.

Hubbis - (04.07.2023) - After more than four years as Co-Head for North Asia at HSBC Private Bank, and a long and diverse career in major global financial institutions, veteran private banker Ivan Wong took the reins as CEO for the Hong Kong operation of UBP in November last year.

Asian Private Banker (17.02.2023) - Decades ago, private bankers could survive with a limited investment skill set and a good network, but today they have to master several layers of expertise on top of relationship management skills, Guy de Picciotto has observed.
