Digital Digest: The Latest Tech News - UBS
The latest news about technology products and services relevant for wealth managers around the world.
UBS has launched a
performance and risk analytics tool pitched at ultra-high net
worth and institutional clients, designed to track their money
across a range of custodians and locations.
The “Asset Wizard” gives oversight across all bankable and
non-bankable asset classes, such as private equity, venture
capital, art, real estate and classic cars.
The service gives clients the ability to monitor areas such as
investment sustainability, quality of governance and impact on
society. (The Swiss bank referred to a study it carried out last
year, in its UBS Investor Watch research series, showing that 65
per cent of wealthy investors base spending decisions, career and
lifestyle decisions around such values.
“With Asset Wizard, UBS's ultra-high net worth, global family
office and external asset manager clients are just two clicks
away from comprehensive wealth oversight across all asset classes
and banking relationships. It combines fintech innovative flair
with the financial expertise of UBS,” Stefan Flachsmann, head of
asset servicing, Europe at UBS Global Wealth Management, said.
