UBS

Despite pushback in U.S., investing to promote environmental, social and governance causes remains popular among young and women investors, says UBS co-head of global investment management.

UBS contends a group of advisors who left this month to form an RIA inherited most of their clients from retired advisors who were counting on being paid from their former books of business.

The plan to issue shares on the NASDAQ stock exchange comes three years after UBS abandoned plans to acquire Wealthfront.

In an earlier than usual announcement, UBS said it will update its 2026 compensation grid for U.S. advisors, aiming to curb departures and encourage more work with high net worth clients.

In its third suit in as many months, JPMorgan is accusing a former advisor of using its banking referrals to build a book of business and then trying to abscond with those clients to a rival firm.

Golden State Wealth Management is just the latest large advisory team to exit UBS following changes the wirehouse made to its compensation policies.

The Swiss financial giant also saw its assets flow out of its Americas business in the second quarter as advisors left and clients set aside billions for taxes.

The accusations led to the end of 16 years at the firm.

Panelists on a FINRA arbitration board cited Randy Anderson's claims of age discrimination when questioning UBS's reasons for firing its former broker. Now UBS argues in a court filing that no evidence of discrimination was ever presented.

Randy Anderson worked as a broker for nearly 25 years without a complaint before being accused of making unauthorized trades by a client who, his lawyer says, actually ended up saving money.
