With five trophies to pick up at the WealthBriefing European Awards ceremony, and three at the Euromoney Private Banking Awards event, UBP had a busy night in London on 27 March.
At the WealthBriefing European awards, we won best in breed for:
- Wealth Management Business Servicing the Nordic Region
- Wealth Management Business Servicing the Principality of Monaco
- International Clients Team
- Private Bank – Investment Management Platform
- Alternative Investment Manager (Bank/Institutional)
At the same time, Euromoney Private Banking Awards, the leading annual program in global private banking and wealth management, picked us for the following prizes:
- Asia's Best for Alternative Investments (covering private markets and hedge funds)
- Hong Kong's Best Pure Play/Boutique Private Bank
- Singapore's Best for Alternative Investments (covering private markets and hedge funds)
These results are a solid reflection, in particular, of the Bank’s strategic focus on alternatives in recent years, underscoring our expertise in private markets and hedge funds. They signal that we remain at the forefront of the industry, delivering sophisticated, bespoke investment solutions.
Our inaugural win as Hong Kong's Best Pure Play/Boutique Private Bank in Euromoney is particularly meaningful for our Asia business. It highlights our successful positioning as a family-owned and managed, pure-play private bank in this dynamic, promising and yet highly competitive international financial hub.
Nicolas Faller, Co-CEO Asset Management“At UBP, we take pride in our leadership in the alternatives space. The maturation of alternative strategies over decades has equipped us to help investors capitalise on shifting market dynamics. Additionally, we offer unique tools that enable us to provide clients with a consolidated analysis of all their hedge fund positions across banks, ensuring a well-rounded approach to asset allocation.”
Michael Blake, CEO Asia“These wins demonstrate the strength of our investment expertise and the increasing importance of alternatives in client portfolios. This positive momentum also substantially helped us win the award for being the best amongst our peers in Hong Kong.”
